Offer adapted to visitors with reduced mobility

Offer of visit & prices

No need to book in advance! Just turn up at the ticket office on the day of your visit with your proof of entitlement to free priority access to the monument with your companion.

Admission to the monument is free for disabled persons and their companions, upon presentation of valid proof (valid Mobility and Inclusion card for the French public issued by the CDAPH (or foreign equivalent)).

The mobility and inclusion card (CMI) with "priority" mention only, as well as the parking card, do not give the right to free travel.

Drop-off & access

Drop-off

The monument can only be reached via the Passage du Souvenir, a tunnel at the top of the Avenue des Champs-Elysées and at the top of the Avenue de la Grande-Armée via a staircase.

This passageway is not accessible to people with reduced mobility. A drop-off point (for taxis or private vehicles) is therefore provided on the median opposite the Avenue de la Grande Armée for access to the monument. It is symbolised on the ground by a blue pictogram. Reception staff will be on hand to guide you to the ticket office and then to the entrance to the monument (with priority access).
