Step inside the Basilica of Saint-Denis, the first Gothic cathedral ever built and a masterpiece of medieval architecture. With this entry ticket, explore the site that serves as the final resting place of nearly every French king and queen. Admire the soaring vaulted ceilings, intricate stained-glass windows, and sculpted royal tombs that tell the story of centuries of French history. It was here that Henry IV of France formally renounced his Protestant faith to embrace Catholicism, and where the queens of France were crowned, with the royal regalia — including the coronation sword and sceptre — safeguarded between ceremonies.
