Tour Overview
Hours: Gates close at 6:00 p.m. mid-March through October and at 5:30 p.m. November through mid-March. If you're in the cemetery at closing time, workers will walk around ringing bells and requiring everyone to go to the nearest exit.
Notes: Admission is free for both independent and guided tours (offered on Saturdays and Sundays), and you can download a detailed map here: http://www.paris.fr/cimetieres. You might want to bring some flowers for your favorite tomb; wear good walking shoes; and bring a bottle of water.
