Panthéon

5th Arr.

The Panthéon stands as France's secular temple to its greatest minds: Voltaire, Marie Curie, Victor Hugo, and Josephine Baker rest beneath its soaring dome. Originally a church dedicated to Saint Geneviève, this 18th-century masterpiece now invites quiet contemplation among Corinthian columns, marble monuments, and one of Paris's most spectacular rooftop views.
