Learn About Soufflot's Architecture and the Panthéon's History

Built as a church dedicated to St. Genevieve at the request of King Louis XV, the Panthéon was designed by architect Jacques-Germain Soufflot (1713–1780). During the French Revolution in 1791, it lost its religious character and was renamed the Panthéon. In the 19th century, it alternated several times between serving as a religious building and a patriotic monument. Inside, you can also see an exhibition introducing Soufflot's career and achievements.

Explore the Crypt Where France's Great Minds Rest

Following the death of Victor Hugo in 1885, the Panthéon became the final resting place for French writers, scientists, generals, churchmen, and politicians. The crypt contains the tombs of more than 70 notable figures, including Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Émile Zola, Alexandre Dumas, Pierre Curie, and Marie Curie.
