Experience Paris from a spectacular vantage point with rooftop access at the iconic Arc de Triomphe. Located at the heart of the French capital, this Neoclassical monument stands 50 meters tall and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the City of Light, with twelve grand avenues radiating from its base.
Commissioned by Napoleon after his victory at Austerlitz, the Arc de Triomphe reflects the grandeur of ancient Roman arches while honoring French history. Although Napoleon did not witness its completion, the monument remains a symbol of national pride and architectural brilliance.
At the foot of the arch, you'll find the moving Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a tribute to the 1.3 million French soldiers who perished in World War I. Witness the eternal flame, which is ceremoniously rekindled each evening at 6:30 PM, and explore the insightful exhibition detailing the monument's powerful symbolism.
Climb the 284 steps to reach the rooftop platform, where you’ll be rewarded with unforgettable views of Paris’s iconic landmarks. Please note that elevator access is reserved exclusively for visitors with disabilities, ensuring a traditional ascent for most guests.
