Feeling bold? Then why not climb a 50-meter-high monument built by Napoleon just to show off? With this ticket to the Arc de Triomphe, you’ll get access to one of Paris’s most iconic structures, including the rooftop viewing platform where the city literally radiates out around you.

From up here, it’s all about panoramic views, neoclassical drama, and a unique look at the Champs-Élysées (aka the world’s most stylish traffic circle).

Key Highlights

  • Entry to the Arc de Triomphe, Napoleon’s overachieving tribute to his army
  • Access to the rooftop terrace for one of the best views in Paris
  • Learn the arch’s history through interactive exhibits, photos, and video displays
  • Visit the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, burning with an eternal flame beneath the arch
  • Admire 12 grand avenues radiating out like Paris’s own star-shaped crown
  • Instant smartphone ticket and wheelchair access to the base level

About Arc de Triomphe Entry ticket + Rooftop Access

It’s big. It’s bold. It’s pure Parisian drama. Built by Napoleon Bonaparte to honour his victorious Grande Armée, the Arc de Triomphe is a neoclassical masterpiece towering over the Place Charles de Gaulle.

With this ticket, you’ll climb to the rooftop, where you’re rewarded with a 360° view of the City of Light. The Eiffel Tower, Sacré-Cœur, and even La Défense all unfold before your eyes. Don’t miss the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, where a flame burns continuously in memory of fallen soldiers. A moving contrast to the grandeur above, it’s the heart of a monument that’s both epic and intimate. Also inside, there are fascinating video displays and historic photos that bring the arch’s revolutionary roots to life.

Whether you’re a history buff, architecture lover, or someone who just wants the perfect Paris pic without Eiffel Tower crowds, this one’s for you.
