A life-size copy of the torch, Flame of Liberty, can be seen above the entrance to the Pont de l'Alma tunnel near the Champs-Élysées in Paris. It was given to the city as a return gift in honour of the centennial celebration of the statue's dedication. In 1997, the torch became an unofficial memorial to Diana, Princess of Wales after she was killed in a car accident in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel..
