A Crypte archéologique de l'île de la Cité é um museu arqueológico subterrâneo situado sob o adro da Catedral de Notre-Dame. Inaugurada em 1980, preserva vestígios descobertos durante escavações realizadas nas décadas de 1960 e 1970, incluindo termas e muralhas galo-romanas, porões medievais e os alicerces de igrejas e hospitais hoje desaparecidos. Gerida pela Paris Musées, a cripta traça a evolução urbana da Île de la Cité ao longo de dois milênios, com reconstituições em 3D que dão vida às sucessivas épocas da cidade.
