Please tell me what Ledoux's Rotonde was for & what's its use today. Was it possibly part of an entry to Paris as some of his other structures were? Thanks so much for this video. ßeta0net: Ledoux was able to realize many of his most advanced ideas in the series of Barrières or toll-houses erected around Paris (1785 - 1789), including the Rotonde de la Villette (Place de Stalingrad), with its mighty drum on unfluted Greek Doric serlianas, set over a square plan to each elevation of which are attached square Doric columns. Don't know its fuction today.
