The grand Conciergerie houses the French Police and the Court of Justice. This imposing Gothic palace, built by Philip Le Bel (the Fair) between 1301 and 1315, has a rich history. Parts of it were turned into a prison , controlled by the conciergerie, or keeper of the king's mansion, hence the name. Ravaillac, assasin of Henry IV, was tortured here. But it was during the Revolution that the prison became a place of terror, when thousands were held here awaiting execution at the guillotine. Today, you can see the Salle des Gardes and the magnificent vaulted Salle des Gems d' Armes, the medieval kitchens, torture chambers, the Bonbec tower and the cell where Marie Antoinette was held. There is also a fantastic virtual reality tour (free of charge), which shows you how all the sections of the building looked like.
It was about absolute hit! The teens loved the iPad treasure trail and we enjoyed how the iPad technology allowed you to see what the palace would have been like. (Each of us had an iPad each at no extra cost.) The information about Marie Antoinette and the life of the prisoners was fascinating. We all really enjoyed this attraction and highly recommend.
Just like the Notre Dame Cathedral, Sainte Chapelle is nestled on Paris’ City Island. This medieval chapel in Gothic style architecture used to be part of Palais de la Cité. It is famed for its 15 beautiful 13th-century stained glass windows, carved 15 meters up, near the ceiling. These historic windows depict important events both from the Old and New Testaments. Sainte Chapelle also houses significant Christian relics. It was declared a national historic monument in 1862.
