Pantheon

A neoclassical architectural marvel located in the Latin Quarter, the Panthéon in Paris is an iconic monument intertwined with French history. Originally built as a church, it now serves as the final resting place of some of France's most famous figures, including Voltaire, Rousseau, Victor Hugo and Marie Curie. 

Visitors can explore its stunning interiors, grand dome and intricate sculptures, as well as enjoy breathtaking views of the city from the colonnade. Our entrance tickets to the Panthéon offer you the opportunity to discover French cultural heritage by combining art, architecture and history in one unforgettable experience. 

Originally built as a church dedicated to St. Genevieve, it is now a mausoleum where the country's most distinguished citizens are buried. The building is a striking example of Parisian neoclassical architecture with its majestic dome. 

Beyond its architectural beauty, the Panthéon houses the remains of famous figures such as Voltaire, Rousseau, Victor Hugo and Marie Curie, making it a sacred site of remembrance and national pride. 

Visitors to the Panthéon can spend quality time in the breathtaking interior, where classical and religious themes come together in stunning frescoes and sculptures. One of the main attractions is the Foucault Pendulum, which illustrates the rotation of the Earth and continues to fascinate science enthusiasts.  A walk through the crypt offers a sad but awe-inspiring experience as you encounter the final resting places of France's intellectual and political giants.  

Centrally located in the Latin Quarter of Paris, the Panthéon is easily accessible by public transportation. Visitors can take the metro, the nearest stations of which are Luxembourg (RER B) and Cardinal Lemoine (Line 10). Bus lines 21 and 27 also stop near the Panthéon. For those who prefer a more scenic route, the monument is within walking distance of many Parisian landmarks, including the Luxembourg Gardens and the Sorbonne University. 

The Panthéon is open year-round, with opening hours usually between 12:00 am and 18:30 pm. These hours may change during public holidays or special events, so it is advisable to check the official website or inquire locally before planning your visit. 

When planning a visit to the Panthéon, it is worth setting aside at least an hour and a half to fully explore its interior, crypt, and dome (if visiting during the opening season). In addition, the Panthéon is located near many other major attractions in the Latin Quarter, making it an ideal stop on a larger walking tour of the area. If you plan to visit the dome in particular, you should wear comfortable shoes as there are several stairs to climb. 

In addition to exploring the monument visitors can take part in temporary exhibitions highlighting various aspects of French history and culture. Exhibitions often explore the lives of intellectuals buried in the Panthéon, offering new perspectives on their contributions. The surrounding Latin Quarter also offers a wealth of experiences, from visiting nearby historical sites such as the Luxembourg Gardens to enjoying the vibrant café culture that has defined the area for centuries. 

When you buy Panthéon admission tickets, you can choose how long you want to spend at the venue.
