# Tour du Temple

Paris, Paris, Île-de-France

Tour du Temple stands in Paris (Paris), in the Île-de-France region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The tower of the Temple no longer stands: this fortress built by the Templars in the Marais from 1240 onwards was demolished in 1808 on the orders of Napoleon I, who wanted to erase a site that had become a place of royalist pilgrimage. Today one visits its former location, in the northern part of the 3rd arrondissement, more for its history than for any standing structure: it was here that Louis XVI and his family were imprisoned between 1792 and 1795, and where the young Louis XVII died. A visit here means tracing a vanished site while walking through the neighbourhood around what is now the town hall of the 3rd arrondissement.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
