Found a mention of three flights (sorry, no photos):

At 7:30 on Aug 7th 1919, Charles Godefroy flew through the Arc de Triomphe in an Nieuport XXVII, in a protest against the insufficient role the aviation was given in the July 14th parade.

After his unauthorised flight through the Arch de Triomphe in October 1981, Alain Marchand was fined and had his license suspended.

On Aug 16th 1991, a Mudry Cap 10B was flown through the Arch de Triomphe and then through the Eiffel Tower.
