Is there any LEGAL way to get into the catacombs under paris?

Question

i've heard that paris has been shutting down entry ways but do they have any tours or anything that allow you to see parts of the catacombs?

Answer 1

I believe the only way to enter is the illegal way.

Due to the catacomb mazes they are dangerous. No one knows the whole map out of them because there is so many twist and turns.  Too many people have died trying to discover new passages.

If there is a tour or something, it most likely be a short one and not too far in.  check it out on google.

Answer 2

Yes, there is. Here is the official website:

http://www.catacombes-de-paris.fr/englis...

The entrance is at 1, avenue of Colonel Henri Rol-Tanguy in the 14th arrondissment. You can reach this by either Metro or RER B to the Denfert-Rochereau stop.

Answer 3

yes you can visit it legally,

but some young Parisians prefer doing it alone at night (it's much more funny and exciting). But it's dangerous if they don't have a map (and it's hard to find some, people who have one give it to their friends or children) or even someone who knows the catacombs to lead them. Holly is right if they are lost they can worry... What is more it's forbidden and if policemen catch them they'll be penalized !

So I really advise you to see Rillifan's website if you want to visit the catacombs.
