Why we recommend it
"Finally a WWII tour that doesn't fall into pathos! The guide knows her subject inside out and tells you about the occupation with a factual and documented perspective. The archival photos she pulls from her bag are stunning, you really see Paris transform before your eyes."
— The Quoi Faire à Paris team
The experience
This 2-hour walk brings occupied Paris back to life, far from clichés. You'll discover how the city really functioned between 1940 and 1944: where Nazi offices were located, how Parisians managed daily life, and why certain places were strategic.
The itinerary is smart: Concorde, Meurice, Vendôme, Opera, Louvre... Each stop tells a different facet of the occupation. Your Parisian guide shows you little-known period photos so you can really visualize what these places looked like. No tourist chatter, just concrete facts that help you understand this dark but fascinating period of Parisian history.
