In 2023, for the new and 40th edition of the Journées du Patrimoine, the Conciergerie will once again open its doors to you, offering free tours on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th September 2023, from 9:30am to 5:00pm, to discover this castle-like building, part of the history of the City of Paris. A remarkable example of 14th-centurycivil architecture, it's a must-see for families and friends alike.
This part of the medieval Palais de la Cité (the former residence of the kings of France) was transformed into a prison during the French Revolution. Today, the Salle des Gardes and the immense Salle des Gens d'Armes, built under Philip the Fair, remain, as do the kitchens built under John the Good, still in their original state. As for the dungeons, visitors can discover the cell where Queen Marie-Antoinette was imprisoned just before being guillotined.
Take advantage of your visit to the Conciergerie to discover the Sainte-Chapelle, a jewel of Gothic architecture just a few steps away.
Free tours of the Conciergerie will be offered on September 16 and 17, 2023, from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
