1. Eiffel Tower

It is not only the strongest tourist magnet in Paris, but the most famous sight in all of France. Visible from almost the entire city, the Eiffel Tower is mighty and graceful: the world’s most romantic steel construction is 324 metres high and weighs more than 10,000 tonnes. The landmark of Paris was built by the eponymous French engineer Gustave Eiffel for the Paris World’s Fair in 1889.

2. Arc de Triomphe

The Arc de Triomphe is 50 metres high, 45 metres long and 22 metres wide, built in the style of Roman antiquity and decorated with martial-patriotic reliefs. Emperor Napoleon commissioned the Arc de Triomphe in 1806 to glorify his victories. Today it houses the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier with an Eternal Flame.

3. Palace of Versailles

The Palace of Versailles was the main residence of kings, including the Sun King Louis XIV, from the mid-17th century until the French Revolution. The Baroque building is half a kilometre long and impresses visitors:inside with its lavish interior with lots of gold as well as the imposing gardens in strict geometric shapes.

4. Jardin du Luxembourg

The Jardin du Luxembourg, which covers about 26 hectares, is divided into an English and a French garden section. In between is a forest, a large pool, an apiary, an orchid collection and an orchard with many old apple varieties. The historic palace building Palais du Luxembourg, seat of the French House of Lords, sets the majestic atmosphere. The parks in front of it offer strictly geometric forms and free plantings in the style of English landscape gardens.

5. Montmartre

The famous city hill Montmartre, in German Martyr’s Hill, in the north of the city offers walkers a musical flair. Famous artists such as Pablo Picasso, Émile Zola, Paul Gauguin and Henri Matisse once lived here. Even today, this part of the city is known as the artists’ quarter. A picturesque street is Rue Lepic, made famous by the film “The Fabulous World of Amelie” and where the painter Vincent van Gogh lived.

6. Notre Dame

The mighty Gothic-style cathedral on the Île de la Cité is the seat of the Paris archbishopric. It was built for almost 200 years from 1163 onwards. The western façade is particularly impressive, with its two towers almost 70 metres high, the round rose window and the three gates. Large parts of the historic building were destroyed in a fire in 2019, and restoration is a top priority in France.
