The Catacombes of Paris

11/04/2012

The history of the catacombs begins in the end of the 18th Century. Labyrinth in the earth of the Paris’ underground, the catacombs join together the remains of around six billions of Parisians, who were usually buried in the, now closed, cemeteries of Paris, such as the Cemetery of the Innocents located in the actual Halles area. They were old quarries where they extracted the stones used to build the monuments of Paris.

We can find among these bones, the remains of several personalities, such as Rabelais, La Fontaine, Perrault, the sculptor François Girardon, the painter Vouet, and also the guillotines of the French Revolution: Camille and Lucile Desmoulins, Danton, Robespierre…

Nowadays, the visitor can discover this macabre decor through a tangle of obscure galleries and narrow corridors. This unique site retraces the history of Paris and invites you in a timeless journey.

The catacombes of paris : 1, avenue du Colonel Henri Rol-Tanguy, 75014 Paris.

Direct access from Hotel Le Littré : Ligne 6 at Montparnasse Bienvenüe -  Exit Denfer-Rochereau
