Your experience

The eerie stories!

Beneath the bustling streets of Paris lies a subterranean world holding the remains of over 6 million Parisians. Explore 2 km of underground tunnels and travel back to 18th-century Paris. The Catacombs of Paris are a grim yet beautiful reminder of the city’s important history.

As a way to combat overflowing cemeteries during the Middle Ages, the capitol decided to transform its mines into an underground burial site. Gradually, the city relocated millions of dead bodies to a complex series of interconnected tunnels and rooms, creating a massive 300km stretch of ossuary that has shaped the Paris we know today.

From the role the Catacombs played in the French Revolution and Hitler’s regime to the impact this network of underground tunnels continues to have on the city, explore over 2,000 years of Parisian history in this incredible tour. Since the day they were created, the mysterious ossuaries aroused curiosity, and they continue to do so today.

What to expect on your Paris Catacombs - Priority Access Guided Tour

On the day of your experience, head to the meeting point, located right in front of the Cafe Oz, at the exit of the Denfert Rochereau Metro station, and meet your tour guide. Avoid the hassle of waiting in a long queue as you walk straight through the entrance. Your professional guide will then lead you 20 meters (65 feet) underground, into one of the city’s most enticing attractions.

Be greeted by a doorway with a plaque that warns “Arrête, c'est ici l'empire de la Mort”, “Stop, this is the empire of the dead”. But don’t let that deter you; your adventure has only just begun. Wander past walls lined with skulls and bones as your guide leads you through a 2km, one-way stretch of the ossuary. Explore the ancient world of Paris while listening to stories of the Catacomb’s past. Hear urban legends, listen to creepy tales about the mysterious tunnels, and find out how this complex underground network continues to impact the city.
