Why You Shouldn’t Miss This

While Paris is generally popular for its monuments and exquisite museums that hold priceless masterpieces, the eerie and surreal world beneath its shining streets and magnificent buildings is often forgotten. The Catacombs of Paris are home to about 6 million skeletons. The Port Mahon Gallery inside these tunnels features intricate sculptures carved into the rock. A quarry worker is said to have worked here for 5 years from 1777 until a cave-in crushed him.

The Catacombs were originally built to serve as an alternative to the overflowing cemeteries of the city above. Bones of the dead were stacked here to form fascinating columns and walls during the late 18th Century and the era of Napoleon.

The Sepulchral Lamp and the Sacellum Crypt are other iconic locations inside the Catacombs. The former was perpetually lit to demonstrate that there was enough air to breathe deep underground. You will get an opportunity to witness all this and more on this one-of-a-kind tour.

Your Experience

Walk past the long line outside with your skip-the-line access ticket and enter the chilling Paris Catacombs with your expert local guide. The guide will tell you captivating stories and legends of this extraordinary tunnel complex beneath one of the world’s most glamorous cities.

Visit some of the restricted sections of the Catacombs like the Port Mahon Gallery and marvel at the intricate carvings in the rock. During the French Revolution, the dead were directly transported to the Catacombs. The remains of famous French figures like Lavoisier and Robespierre can be found here.

The Sacellum Crypt, Gilbert’s Tomb, and Sepulchral Lamp are the other compelling attractions you will visit in the Catacombs on this tour. Experience the thrill of exploring this uncanny world below Paris.
