The Arc de Triomphe is one of Paris’ most visited monuments. Many travelers admire the famous landmark only from ground level, either independently or as part of a sightseeing tour. However, it’s well worth climbing to the arch’s viewing terrace at 164 feet (50 meters) to enjoy sweeping views of the city and its top sights, including the Basilique du Sacré-Coeur, the Eiffel Tower, and the Avenue des Champs-Élyséess, which lead down to the Louvre.

Things to know before you go

  • Use the pedestrian underpasses beneath Place Charles de Gaulle to reach the arch. Do not attempt to cross the roundabout—Paris’ busiest traffic circle—on foot.
  • The viewing terrace is not wheelchair-accessible. An elevator goes part way up the arch, but visitors must still climb 46 steps to access the top.
  • Arc de Triomphe tickets are for timed entry.
  • Book skip-the-line tickets in advance to beat the crowds.
  • Be sure to bring a camera to capture the Parisian skyline.

How to get there

The Arc de Triomphe is located on Place Charles de Gaulle at the top of the Champs-Elysees, about a 30-minute walk from Place de la Concorde at the famous avenue’s opposite end. Metro #1, #2, and #6 lines, and the commuter rail RER A line connect to Charles de Gaulle–Étoile, the nearest station.

When to get there

Visibility is best during summer when skies are most likely to be clear. The best views can be had at dusk when the cream-stone cityscape appears to glow gold under the light of the setting sun. Sunset is, however, also the busiest time. To avoid crowds, visit earlier in the day. Public guided Arc de Triomphe tours are available several times daily.

See the flame lighting at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Time your Arc de Triomphe visit for 6:30pm to witness the lighting of the eternal flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The solemn ceremony takes place at the base of the monument, where an unidentified World War I soldier is buried.
