Beneath the streets of Paris, there is another, darker side to the city that few get to see.

Avoid the hassle of ticket counters. Simply show your voucher, start your self-guided tour and explore the ‘City of Lights’ at your own pace with an informative audio guide.

As you discover a world beneath the streets of Paris, see tunnels and rooms decorated with the human bones and skulls of around 6 million Parisians. The Paris Catacombs were originally a quarry with hundreds of kilometers of tunnels burrowed beneath the streets of Paris. When the cemeteries of Paris became overfilled, the city started moving the dead into the Catacombs.
