The Pantheon’s program mirrors French history: church, mausoleum, and civic hall of memory.
🗓️ Key Moments
- 1758–1790: Construction under Soufflot.
- 1791: Declared mausoleum by the National Assembly.
- 19th–20th c.: Alternates between church and civic uses.
📊 Program Shifts
| Period | Program | Motive |
|---|---|---|
| Revolutionary | Mausoleum | Honor national figures |
| Restoration | Church | Return to religious use |
| Modern | Civic icon | Memory + education |
The building carries multiple identities—a palimpsest of roles.
