La Conciergerie has great architecture that over-looks the River Seine, a clock tower which remains from the 1300's but is also well known for holding Marie Antoinette before she faced the guillotine . Read more

Must see. Buy the ticket in conjunction with St Chapelle ticket.The French Revolution permanent exhibition of the fortress that housed prisoners for interrogation, release or guillotine .

Guto Chicanelli

If you speak a bit french, try the guided tour ! She was really friendly and so damn professional! Sometimes you can feel like a prisoner ! So good and so creepy :)

Elizabeth Lee

Visit the former prisons of Paris & get creeped out by the reconstruction of Marie Antoinette 's prison cell. You can imagine the head of her model turning to you, as you view from the steel door.

Otel.com

This former royal palace and prison has impressive Gothic architecture . Find this at Île de la Cité. The Prisoners ' Gallery contains interesting artifacts and mementos. Opens 9:30 am daily.

Marina Burity

It was were Marie Antoinette was arrested before her execution. It's worth a visit and you can buy a join ticket with Saint-Chapelle

Alex Curiel

Historic castle by the river . Was a royal castle at the very beginning, and was even used as a prison during the Revolution (Marie Antoinette was imprisoned here).

Mahan Parizi

Interesting place but not extraordinary. Try to buy your tickets+the one for saint chapelle . This way you can bypass the long line in saint chapelle (which is a must see place)

Zeynep Ozturk Ozyer

Don’t forget to pop in after or before the Grand Chapel! Real history of French revolution !

eric bornemann

Interesting historical site that illuminates some of the history of the revolution. Worth checking out while on the Ile.

Eva

Definitely worth a visit, also with teenagers. It definitely makes your imagination work.

Olcay Dogukan Aydın

Please study a little bit about the French Revolution before you visit here

Don’t miss the chapel built on cell of Marie Antoinette

Part of the museum pass . If you are seeing a lot of items on the list, buy it and save yourself a lot of money and time. Free entry with pass.

Jackson Tsai

This place used to be a prison , part of the royal palace . Currently used as judicial purposes

Feyza Arikan

Wish they had a giyotin as well inside, its nice but i was expecting much more

Jackie K

Part of the museum pass . Check it out! Only need 30-40 mins.

Phil Nom

Worth a stop over if you have he museum pass

David Bernal

If you have a tight agenda you can skip this monument of Paris. There are better places to go in this city .

Chris Chen

Would skip. Interesting part of the French Revolution but not much to see and not worth the entrance fee

It is free under 18. However, you will need someone over 18 to accompany you :/

Larry Oosterhuis

Buy the combo ticket

Fabio Moraes

O antigo palácio real, de estilo gótico, também foi prisão . É uma visita quase obrigatória e vale a pena.

Vicente Martinez

Visita muy recomendable aunque la verdad es que se me hizo corta. Hay estancias que merecen mucho la pena . Se puede comprar la entrada conjunta para la Santa Capilla y gozar de entrada preferente.

Mauricio Ribeiro

Nessa antiga prisão de Maria Antonieta, vale um passeio pela história e a austeridade. De um lugar que respira a arquitetura e o passado daqueles que aguardaram sua sentença na Revolução Francesa.

Jean Cité

Primero residencia de reyes, luego prisión durante el periodo de El Terror. Se puede visitar la celda que ocupó María Antonieta antes de su ejecución en 1793.

Carlos B

La concergeria ,Puente nuevo el parque de diversiones estos son lugares q tienes q pasar para llegar al museo de Luvre

Felipe Ribeiro

Melhor banheiro desta ilha maldita de cheia! Aqui era a morada dos reis e se for ao banheiro vai ficar em um trono limpo e tranquilo para fazer suas necessidades...

marie L

Si tu veux visualiser l'esprit de la revolution française il faut visiter cette ancienne prison . En revanche peu de veritable chose à voir .

Lars

Schöner gotischer Saal und recht interessanter Gefängnistrakt. Unter 26 Jahren kommt man kostenfrei rein. Ansonsten lohnt sich der Eintrittspreis nur begrenzt.

Bidou yaya

La visite en réalité virtuelle est vraiment extra ! Je conseille vivement aux familles !

Katrin Supova

Можно сэкономить и купить билет сразу в Консьержери и часовню Сент-Шапель за 11 евро.(март-октябрь пн-вс 9.30–18.00; ноябрь-февраль пн-вс 9.00–17.00, вход — 7 евро, 4,5 евро (льготный))

Adiba El Boujdaini

Mejor visitar primero la parte de arriba y luego la de abajo, o se hace eterno. Y vale mucho la pena ver el video explicativo de la revolución francesa :D

Kevin Piyasena

Expo à triple tour au top! Des oeuvres intéressantes, un vrai propos, un lieu magnifique!

Chibi Nou

Très bel endroit avec ces voûte. Sympa pour les photographes . Attention, le trepued n'est pas autorisé.

Christelle Fossi

Ancienne prison qui a recueilli des personnages célèbres comme Marie-Antoinette.

ParisianGeek

Vestige du Palais de la Cité (1er palais des rois de France), elle fût notamment une prison. C'est ici que Marie-Antoinette fût incarcérée avant la guillotine...

Ruslan Dosaev

Интересно, но слегка нафталинно;( все эти 20 летней давности муляжи пора бы обновить.

Ricardo R.I.

Chegue cedo, antes das 9h20, para não enfrentar fila . E compre o museum pass para passar na frente de todo mundo.
