FAQs

Why were the Paris Catacombs created?

The origins of the Paris Catacombs date back to the late eighteenth century, driven by significant public health issues associated with the city's cemeteries. This prompted the decision to relocate their contents to an underground site.
Is a visit to the Paris Catacombs worthwhile?

The Catacombs feature intricate bone art and sculptures, providing a fascinating experience. General admission offers ample skeleton views, but the restricted areas showcase the most unique bone artworks and exploration opportunities.
Are the bones in the Paris Catacombs real?

Yes, the catacombs beneath Paris are very real. Originally ancient quarries, they were transformed into ossuaries when above-ground cemeteries in Paris were closed. These corridors, located 20 meters underground, store millions of bones.
Is it allowed to touch the bones in the catacombs?

Preservation measures prohibit eating, drinking, or bringing animals on the site circuit. Alcohol in any form is not allowed, and, naturally, touching the bones, fragile remnants of millions of Parisians, is strictly prohibited.
