Overview

Discover the dark side of the City of lights listening to your local guide telling you about the most terrible crimes and scandals that marked the inhabitants of Paris and shaped the history of France.

Let's talk treasons, murders, trials, executions! What punishments were inflicted over the centuries? For who? Why was the guillotine invented? Who were the witches and why were they burned alive? Your expert local guide will lead you in the dark cobbled streets and tell you murder stories that marked the inhabitants of Paris forever. The story of landmarks you will see beautifully lit in the night and major events that shaped French history will help you understand the evolution of trials and justice in France. Please note that this tour is about historical events, not legends.
