ParisArc De Triomphe Tickets

Arc de Triomphe: The bowing legacy in stone

At the center of a large boulevard, standing tall at the western edge of the Champs-Élysées there is an arch that has been standing tall for centuries, with patterned inscriptions and statues that speak of a brave past. 

That’s the Arc de Triomphe, a key symbol of French identity marked by events like the Bastille Day military parade and the annual Tour de France race. This giant stone history book, commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte as an emblem of victory, took over 30 years to complete. This guide helps you plan your trip to the literal heart of French history at this triumphal arch.

Things to know before booking your tickets to the Arc de Triomphe

  • You can walk around and explore the base of the Arc de Triomphe for free. However, if you want to climb to the rooftop for panoramic views, you’ll need to purchase a ticket.
  • The lines at the Arc de Triomphe can get long, often keeping you waiting for up to an hour during peak seasons. Book fast-track tickets to skip the queues, giving you more time to explore and enjoy the monument.
  • Mini-workout alert! There are a total of 284 steps that will take you about 15-20 minutes to climb to get to the top of the Arc de Triomphe. Sure, there’s an elevator, but that is reserved for pregnant women, people with mobility issues, and those with families.
  • While you’ll receive a booklet in 10 languages that covers the rich history of the Arc de Triomphe and the battles it commemorates, opting for the audio guide (available in English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian) will provide deeper, more engaging insights into the monument’s significance.
  • You can enter the Arc de Triomphe for free on the first Sunday of January, February, March, November, and December.
  • Entry to the Arc de Triomphe is free for children under 18 and young adults under 25 from the European Union. But, you'll still need to reserve tickets for them beforehand, as these free passes will be scanned at the entrance. Moreover, if you are a Paris Museum Pass or the Passion Monuments Pass holder you can enter the landmark for free!

The tomb of the unknown soldier

Beneath the arched structure of the Arc de Triomphe lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a tribute to the countless anonymous heroes who died for their country and remain unsung. The eternal Flame of Remembrance, lit in 1923, honors the sacrifices of all French soldiers and has never been extinguished.

The inscriptions

What makes the Arc de Triomphe a key symbol of the French identity are the staggering 158 battle names inscribed on the monument's surfaces. Did you know that the engravings are interestingly divided, as the outer ring features victories of the French Revolution, while the inner surface celebrates Napoleon's conquests? The names of over 600 French generals are carved on the arch– a wall of fame like no other. 

The museum

Want to take a walk through time to understand more about the Arc de Triomphe, from its conception to the blueprint and the construction? Head to the museum located just below the observation deck, dedicated to all things Triomphe! As you look around, you’ll learn about the design choices, the challenges faced by the architects, and the symbolism embedded in the sculptures and reliefs. The exhibits include artifacts, photographs, drawings and models of the arch.

The pillars

The Arc de Triomphe’s history is set in stone, literally! Between 1833 and 1836, artists like François Rude and Antoine Etex carved the pillars with scenes depicting pivotal moments in French history.On the east side, you'll find François Rude's 'The Departure of the Volunteers,' while turning the corner reveals Jean-Pierre Cortot's 'Napoleon's Triumph”. The south side takes a somber turn with Antoine Etex's "The Resistance," and finally, on the west side, there’s Etex's "The Peace".
