HistoryArchaeologyOpen until 6pmFrom €9Cité (Metro Line 4)

La Crypte archéologique de l'île de la Cité és un museu arqueològic subterrani situat sota l'esplanada de la catedral de Notre-Dame. Inaugurada el 1980, conserva restes descobertes durant les excavacions dels anys 1960 i 1970, entre les quals hi ha termes i muralles gal·loromanes, cellers medievals i els fonaments d'esglésies i hospitals avui desapareguts. Gestionada per Paris Musées, la cripta traça l'evolució urbana de l'Île de la Cité al llarg de dos mil·lennis, amb reconstruccions en 3D que donen vida a les successives èpoques de la ciutat.
