-The stylish connotations of the name "'''Trocadero'''" derive from the [[Battle of Trocadero]] in southern Spain, a citadel held by liberal Spaniard forces that was taken by the French troops sent by [[Louis XVIII of France]], in 1823. The battle was commemorated in the [[Trocadéro|Place du Trocadéro]], Paris, and the monumental glamor of the Parisian site has given rise to a variety of locales bearing its name.
