Discover the first example of Gothic architecture in the world: explore the magnificent Medieval Basilica of Saint-Denis located just outside of Paris.
Pointed arches, rib-vaulted ceilings and stunning stained glass windows... the characteristics of Gothic architecture follow a clear pattern: the Basilica of Saint-Denis. This Medieval abbey church, located on the outskirts of Paris, was the first building to be built in the architectural style that would spread over Western Europe between the 12th and 15th centuries.
This ticket will give you access to the Basilica of Saint-Denis so you can explore its awe-inspiring interior at your own pace, which houses the Royal necropolis. The cathedral is the final resting place of many of France's historic monarchs and their extravagant tombs are well worth a visit. Don't miss the funerary monuments of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, the royals whose execution was one of the first events of the French Revolution.
In addition to the sculptural masterpieces in the Basilica of Saint-Denis, you'll be captivated by the spectacular stained glass windows, especially the rose window, and the colorful illumination of the cathedral, thanks to the light that shines through.
You can't miss seeing other gems in the Basilica of Saint-Denis, like the organ, choir, and the adjoining chapels. To complete your tour, we recommend visiting the Fabrique de la flèche, a place located at the foot of the monument, where you can discover all the secrets that took place during the construction of the Basilica.
