Paris Catacombs Timed Ticket with Audio Guide

Twenty metres below the streets of the 14th arrondissement, a stretch of old quarry tunnels holds the bones of millions of Parisians, moved here from overflowing cemeteries in the late 1700s. The walls of carefully stacked skulls and bones are unforgettable.

Your timed ticket sets your entry slot, and the audio guide explains how the ossuary was created, what the inscriptions mean and how the tunnels were used over the centuries. The route is around 1.5 kilometres and exits at a different street from the entrance.
