Zero point

Perfect start, this is the zero point of the roads in France. It serves as a reference for the distance between Paris and other cities. It can be found on the square in front of Notre-Dame, it is a compass rose in a golden medallion. This reference point was created in 1769, but it was not put on the ground until 1786. At that time, the main roads started from this point. Today, the "national" roads tend to leave from the outskirts of Paris.
