Visit one of the most emblematic monuments in Paris with the official-price ticket to the Arc de Triomphe. You'll have access to the stunning viewpoint and exhibition!
With this ticket to the Arc de Triomphe, you'll gain entry to the exhibition within the monument. Inside, you'll find models and artifacts from the Napoleonic era on display.
This ticket also grants you access to the Arc de Triomphe's viewpoint. From this vantage point, you can relish breathtaking views of the Champs-Élysées, the Eiffel Tower, and the banks of the River Seine. The perfect spot to take the most beautiful photos of Paris!
Important: the lift to climb up to the panoramic terrace, which is reserved exclusively for people with reduced mobility, is closed due to maintenance work.
It's said that Napoleon Bonaparte, possibly feeling a bit sensitive about his short stature, took a unique approach to ensure others shared his frustrations. How did he do that? In 1805, after the French victory in the Battle of Austerlitz, the perfect occasion presented itself: he ordered a large monument to be built that would not only commemorate the victory but also make anyone who admired its outstanding architecture feel small and insignificant. And so, the Arc de Triomphe project came to life, although ironically, Napoleon did not live to see the finished masterpiece.
Standing proudly at the culmination of the renowned Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe proudly displays the names of Napoleon's major victories etched into its walls. Just beneath these inscriptions lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. An eternal flame burns here in remembrance of those who lost their lives and remained unidentified in both World Wars.
