Catacombes 1 place Denfert Rochereau - 75014 Paris
The origin of the Catacombs of Paris (which it would be to better call "municipal Ossuary") goes up at the end of the XVIIIth century. The cemetery of Innocent (close to Saint-Eustache, in the district of Les Halles) had been opened during nearly ten centuries and had become a hearth of infection for all the inhabitants of the district. Afterwards of multiple complaints, the Council of State, by a the ruling of November 9th 1785, pronounced the removal and the evacuation of the cemetery of the Innocent.
