Île de la Cité Heart of
Paris

Opening Hours on Ile de la Cite

The ile is a residential district and hence roads to and from it are open at all times, however of course some of the major items that you may wish to visit do have their own hours. Here are the major ones:

Notre Dam Cathedral - Daily 9 until 6

Palais de Justice - Monday to Friday during mornings, from 9 until 1PM.

Sainte Chapelle - 9 or 9:30 depending on the season until 5pm

Île Saint-Louis Another Island Île Saint-Louis is the easterly neighbour of Ile de la Cite and although smaller does have many intereting sites. Don't miss the chance to visit both as the are directly next to each other in the Sein.

Cross directly from one to the other via the pedestrian only Pont Saint-Louis which connects Quai d'Orleans to Quai de Borbon. On the Saint-Louis side enjoy one of the many fine cafes or look into the small shops that serve the residents of the island.

Don't walk far though as it is a small island and you'll soon have left it!
