Sainte-Chapelle & Conciergerie: Admission Ticket

At the heart of the former Palace of the Cité, the history of France unfolds through two buildings with opposing destinies. The thousand and one biblical scenes frozen in the stained glass windows of the 13th century bathe the royal chapel in a supernatural light, once designed to house the Crown of Thorns. Just a few steps away, the Gothic vaults of the former residence transformed into a prison tell a completely different story, that of the last days of Marie Antoinette. This journey traverses the centuries, from medieval splendor to the dark hours of the Revolution. An Histopad, a augmented reality tablet available until 4:30 PM, allows you to visualize the lost rooms in French, English, Spanish, German, Italian, or Chinese. This temporal journey offers a striking perspective on the evolution of power and justice, away from the hustle and bustle of the grand boulevards.
