Sacre Couer on the hill of Monmartre provides the best 360 degree views of the city of Paris,…read moreparticularly if you venture to climb the 300 steps to the top dome (for 7 euros). Entrance to the basilica is free, and it's opened from 6am until 10:30pm. It was built with the "self cleaning" Chateau-Lando stone from France, and the rain and weathering keeps it white. Crowds linger on the steps and around the overlook areas. Vendors try to sell you cheap locks to put on the surrounding fencing (the locks covering the fences-even with signs saying "no locks permitted" are an eyesore and should be removed). Security line checks are long and in February 2026 we waited about 30 or 40 mins to enter. I can only imagine what chaos it is in the high season. The basicalla is beautful inside and well worth checking out, although quiet and repect are required as there are masses going on. For this visit the crypt was not available to enter, which was highly disappointing There is also a small train trolly like vehicle right outside that will take you on a 30 minute ride around Monmartre for 12 euros. We thought it was a bit cheesey and touristy at first, but it really was worth it! Sacre couer is majestically beautiful!

You can take a taxi & get dropped off at the top, right at the entrance. If you take the metro, you'll have to walk up 222 steps or pay a few euros to take the Montmartre Funicular up, a 2 min ride. We spent about 30min there.

Ignored by most of the tourists queuing into and around the famous Sacre-Coeur, this lovely little…read morechurch provides a blissful escape from the crowds. The site is adjacent to the remains of the Roman temple or Mars, which gives Montmartre its name. The church was possibly founded in the 3rd Century, but there was certainly a Church here by the 800s. Louis VI acquired the site in the 1100s to establish a monastery here, and the church was then rebuilt, and reconsecrated in 1147, at a Service attended by Bernard of Clairvaux. The church was badly damaged in the French Revolution, and left as a ruin before its (remarkably sensitive) restoration was begun in 1900. The rather grand classical facade belies the interior, which has the appearance of a small medieval country church. Notable inside are the re-used Roman columns and the vibrant stained glass, which on sunny days produces beautiful patterns on the columns.

Unfortunately, the line to get in was down the sidewalk since it was still holiday crowds in Paris. It was fairly organized although only one security guard was running up and down the line to monitor. There isn't a ton to see here besides the windows though . It's one downstairs area that has stuff for purchase. The upstairs area is accessed by some narrow winding stairs that lead into a beautiful spacious area surrounded by large stained glass windows. The windows themselves are original and beautifully maintained. I did some research and found they were removed or boarded up to save them from damage during the wars. Photos don't do this place justice. If you have time, it's definitely worth a look.
