Sainte-Chapelle & Conciergerie Ticket
Ticket Details
Located on the iconic Île de la Cité, together with the Notre Dame, the Conciergerie and the Sainte-Chapelle are the key architectural gems in this part of the city. This ticket will give you entry to both monuments on the same day; saving you time and money!
Sainte-Chapelle
Also known as the "royal chapel of the Île de la Cité", the Sainte-Chapelle is a beautiful Gothic church listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Inside you'll see an extraordinary set of polychrome stained glass windows, considered to be the most beautiful in Paris. Even on cloudy days, the light floods in through the beautiful stained glass windows. This is why some art historians popularly call it "the little glass box" of the French capital.
The Sainte-Chapelle also houses an outstanding collection of sacred art on the history of the relics of the Passion and other episodes such as the life of Saint John the Baptist or Genesis.
