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. It is not possible to cross the Place Charles de Gaulle on foot.

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. Once you have got out of the drop-off vehicle, report to the reception staff on the forecourt. They are located at the security checkpoint and will guide you to the ticket office and then to the entrance to the monument (with priority access).
