Sainte-Chapelle & Conciergerie

A visit to the Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie with a private tour guide is a must-do for anyone visiting Paris. Both landmarks offer a glimpse into the rich history of France and provide a unique perspective on the country’s cultural heritage. From the stunning stained-glass windows of the Sainte-Chapelle to the haunting prison cells of the Conciergerie, there is something for everyone to discover and enjoy at these iconic landmarks

The Sainte-Chapelle was built in the 13th century as a part of the royal palace complex of the Kings of France. The chapel was commissioned by King Saint Louis to house his collection of religious relics, including the Crown of Thorns. Today, visitors can admire the stunning Gothic architecture of the chapel, which features soaring stained-glass windows depicting the Old Testament, the Passion, the New Testament, and the Apocalypse. The upper chapel, in particular, is considered a masterpiece of Gothic art, with its delicate columns and intricate vaulted ceiling

The Conciergerie, located just a few steps away from the Sainte-Chapelle, was originally a palace that served as a residence for the French monarchs before they moved to the Louvre. During the French Revolution, the palace was converted into a prison, and it became known as the Conciergerie. Many famous figures were imprisoned here, including Marie Antoinette, who spent her last days here before her execution in 1793. With your guide, you will explore the prison cells and learn about the lives of the prisoners. The most famous cell is that of Marie Antoinette, which has been preserved as a memorial to the queen.
