Compare standard entry for self-guided exploration against guided tours to navigate the massive complex and its complex military history. While pre-booked tickets skip the ticket office, all visitors must clear a mandatory security queue at either the Esplanade (North) or Vauban (South) entrances.

Good to know before your visit
Entrance
Visitors can enter via the North (129 rue de Grenelle) or South (2 place Vauban) gates. The North entrance is the grand gateway to the main museum wings and armor collections, and it is the only access point for first-Friday evening 'Nocturnes.' The South entrance is the fastest route if your priority is Napoleon’s Tomb. Note that 'skip-the-line' tickets only bypass the ticket desk; all visitors must join the mandatory security queue at either entrance, which can take 15–30 minutes in May. Visitors with motor disabilities are officially advised to use the 129 rue de Grenelle entrance for optimized access.
Discounts
Admission is free for visitors under 18 and for 18–25-year-old nationals of the EU or EEA, with the required proof of eligibility. Visitors with disabilities or invalidity and one accompanying person are also listed as free-admission categories, subject to valid supporting documentation. The museum's first-Friday evening event is not free for everyone: the official event information lists a €10 flat rate, with free admission for under-26 long-term EU residents who present valid identification. Check the official tariff and event page for other reduced-rate categories and booking requirements.
Timing
Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does a 'skip-the-line' ticket bypass the security queue?
No. While these tickets allow you to bypass the ticket office queue, all visitors must undergo mandatory security screenings at the Esplanade des Invalides or Place Vauban entrances, which can take 15–30 minutes during peak hours.
Which entrance should I use for Napoleon's Tomb?
For the fastest access to Napoleon's Tomb (the Dôme), use the South entrance at Place Vauban. Use the North entrance (Esplanade des Invalides) if you want to start with the main military history collections and armor.
How do children and EEA youth get free entry?
Visitors under 18 and EEA residents under 26 enter for free. While they do not need a timed reservation, they must present a valid photo ID at the on-site ticket desk to receive a mandatory free entry ticket before joining the entrance queue.
Can I get a refund if my plans change?
Official tickets are typically non-refundable and non-exchangeable. If you require flexibility, booking through partners like GetYourGuide or Tiqets often provides a 24-hour cancellation window for a full refund.
Are there lockers for large bags or suitcases?
No. For security reasons, the museum does not permit luggage larger than 55x35x20 cm, and there are no on-site storage lockers. You must use external luggage storage services in the surrounding neighborhood.
Is the Paris Museum Pass accepted here?
Yes, the Musée de l'Armée is included in the Paris Museum Pass. Pass holders do not need to book a specific time slot and can join the dedicated pass-holder line at the security checkpoints.
What happens if I arrive late for my timed entry?
The museum usually allows a grace period of about 30 minutes, but entry is subject to capacity. During busy May periods, late arrivals may be asked to wait for the next available window or denied entry if the site is at maximum capacity.
