Napoleon’s tomb lies in a 1600s chapel at the southern edge of the Army Museum (Musée de l’Armée). The museum houses nine permanent and temporary exhibitions in its central Cour d’Honneur building: artillery collections; arms and armor from the Middle Ages to World War II; figurines and musical instruments; and historical models of cities and military campaigns. The complex also contains more than 14 courtyards, a cathedral, and a café.
Breeze through the entrance with a skip-the-line tour of Les Invalides, a popular option for visitors with limited time in Paris. For an in-depth overview of Napoleon’s tomb, book a private tour of the museum complex. Hop-on hop-off bus passes are a convenient way to visit the museum and other Paris highlights, and offer a convenient way to sightsee without the stress of navigating.
