I thought it would be macabre or grotesque, but it wasn’t. It was a bit like being on a cemetery, but with 6 million people buried there - it’s a place where you really feel you have to behave respectfully. It was a feeling of centuries of history and the realization that foundations of Paris are literally bones of it’s former citizens. Arrangements of bones are really striking and it’s beautiful in it’s own way.
I like the inscription above the entrance too:
And one more photo:
While Paris has lots of amazing places to see, Catacombs are among the most worth seeing.
