Conciergerie: which ticket to pick

Your ticket choice depends on your daily plans: you can simply explore the Conciergerie with an interactive tablet, combine your visit with the neighboring Sainte-Chapelle, or get a museum pass for extensive sightseeing in Paris.

Our recommendation

For a quick, self-guided introduction to the prison's history, the basic ticket with HistoPad is perfect. If you want to see more, choose the Sainte-Chapelle combo or an Île de la Cité walking tour.

Official price and partners

The official ticket price is 13 euros. Purchasing from partners may be more expensive due to service fees, but often provides the benefit of flexible cancellation or booking as part of combo tours.

Entrance tip

Entrance to the Conciergerie is from the Quai de l'Horloge; the security check queue is mandatory for all visitors.
