Unveiling Medieval Paris: Conciergerie Entry Tickets
Step back in time and explore the captivating Conciergerie, a pivotal landmark in Parisian history.
This imposing structure, once a royal palace and later a notorious prison, offers a glimpse into the city's fascinating past.
Here's what awaits you:
- Rich History: Delve into the Conciergerie's evolution from royal residence to revolutionary prison, housing infamous figures like Marie Antoinette.
- Architectural Marvel: Explore the Grande Salle, a stunning hall known for its Gothic architecture and intricate details.
Its history is interesting, its facade - impressive - but as a tourist attraction its not doing its job as it is almost empty.
Unique medieval hall, columns and vaults. Not much to do or see, but this huge hall was worth the entrance fee.
You can learn a lot about the time of the Terror of the Revolution, see where Marie Antoinette and Robespierre spent their last hours, and walk in the halls of the former prison. There are tablets that show in AR what the place used to look like. Definitely worth a visit.
