Svelare la Parigi medievale: Biglietti d'ingresso alla Conciergerie
Fate un salto indietro nel tempo ed esplorate l'affascinante Conciergerie, un punto di riferimento fondamentale nella storia di Parigi.
Questa imponente struttura, un tempo palazzo reale e poi famigerata prigione, offre uno sguardo sull'affascinante passato della città.
Ecco cosa vi aspetta:
- Ricca storia: Scoprite l'evoluzione della Conciergerie da residenza reale a prigione rivoluzionaria, che ha ospitato personaggi famigerati come Maria Antonietta.
- Meraviglia architettonica: esplorate la Grande Salle, una splendida sala nota per la sua architettura gotica e i suoi dettagli intricati.
The museum is located in an old prison and is a really interesting building to wander through. It’s a little light on artefacts but has plenty of information panels explaining key events and figures of the revolution. Definitely an interesting spot to visit for those interested in French history, particularly the Revolution.
The sight itself is not essential on a Paris visit, but they have a new virtual reality tablet that is worthwhile in itself. It replaces the old audio guide. It allows you to get visual information on each room (it knows where you are and serves up specific content). But when you hold up the tablet to a wall, it presents a visual of what the room looked like 200 years ago. And has interactive links for more info. It is very well done.
We waited in a small line to visit the conciergerie (we bought a combined ticket with Sainte-Chapelle). Once inside you could go at your own pace so it didn't seem too crowded. Our kids really liked this as they have all heard of Marie Antoinette. Most of the museum was "History's Interpretation of Marie Antoinette". It was really interesting to walk around the conciergerie and think about the events of the French Revolution. If you like history, this is a really great museum.
