Redemptive Chapel - Chapelle expiatoire
The revolution cost the lives of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette, but one can find mementos of their reign and downfall in the chapel. Although they have since been transferred to the Basilica of Saint-Denis, their original burial place was close to this sacred site. Neoclassical style and a dome at the center of a Greek cross create an incredible atmosphere, while the courtyard cenotaphs, dedicated to all those buried in this location, recall France's fascinating history. Includes: Entry to the Chapel of Expiation, Free downloadable booklet available in French, English, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, and Russian
