Highlights

Descend into the eerie depths of Paris's underground mass graveyard, where the bones of over six million human remains are on haunting display. Explore the macabre corridors and gain insights into life and death in 18th-century Paris with the informative multilingual audio guide. Uncover the dark and mysterious side of the City of Lights!


Delve into the chilling history of Paris in the late 1700s. The city faced a grave crisis as its overflowing inner-city graveyards led to epidemics and unsanitary conditions. The Cimetière des Innocents even exploded into someone's basement, prompting the urgent need for action. Under the cloak of night, workers transported human remains from every Parisian graveyard to the Tombe-Issoire quarry. Today, this underground ossuary houses the remains of over six million individuals, nearly three times the current population of Paris!


Embark on a self-paced exploration of the bone-strewn corridors and gain a deeper understanding of this secret slice of Parisian history with the aid of a multi-language audio guide. Uncover the grotesquely beautiful monument to Paris's deceased, constructed in 1788. Witness the meticulously arranged skeletons and immerse yourself in the ultra-creepy caverns. Discover the dark and enigmatic side of the City of Lights as you learn about its 18th-century history through the captivating audio guide.
