Amazing architecture, both outside and inside. Below the Panthéon are the Crypts, which detail (in French) the accomplishments of many famous French poets, scientists, and others like Louis Braille.

First thing to do when you are inside is to register to go to the indoor balcony - 15m high (FREE tour every 20min starting from 10am to 5:20pm). There can be only 20 persons per visit. A must see!

Great digital informative screens and easy to use. It is a little cold inside and with your Museum Pass you can easily have fast access.

A monument in the 5th arrondissement of Paris,✨ atop the Montagne Sainte-Geneviève, built between 1758 and 1790, designs by Jacques-Germain Soufflot, at the behest of King Louis XV of France 🇫🇷

Really cool--you can see the tomb of tons of famous historic figures. Also, in front of the Pantheon is perhaps my favorite view in France :)

Cicero is quoted as saying: “Gratefulness is not only the largest of the virtues, but also the origin of all the others”. And the history of the Pantheon is a very visible sign of gratefulness. Read more

This trip might have limited usefulness, but: during a heat wave (2019 — brutal!), the Panthéon is the chilliest place to take a load off and cool down.

View the tomb of Voltaire, Alexandre Dumas, Marie Curie and Victor Hugo here. Rather unexpectedly, we enjoyed this museum. Focault's pendulum currently not on display till further notice.

Most impressive monument in the Latin Quarter. The most famous French historical figures are buried there. You can visit it during certain periods of the year.

This place glorifies 'la patrie' and French history so much that it makes you want to apply for French citizenship asap. Useful digital information panels at the entrance.

This was my 1st destination as a tourist in France, somewhat by accident; it's an imposing building that is impossible to miss if you're driving by. It was one of the most memorable places I visited.

Make sure to check out the crypt and its residents. Only problem is you're SOL if you don't speak French as there are no translations on anything so who knows who you're reading about.

Architecture is breathtaking. The pendulum isn't there until September '15 though. The crypt was my favourite part.

It was originally built as a church and to house the reliquary châsse containing her relics, now functions as a secular mausoleum containing the remains of distinguished French citizens.

It is an early example of neo-classicism, with a façade modelled on the Pantheon in Rome.

Worth the price of admission if only to see Foucault's Pendulum. The rest of the space is actually quite interesting. Worth it!
