You love heading there for a coffee, a lunch break, or a Sunday stroll with family. The Butte Montmartre shines like a timeless bubble that immerses us in old Paris. Here, history mingles with the artists at Place du Tertre, and visitors from all around the world blend in, amazed, with the local Parisians. With the crowds it sees every day, the famous hill faces many problems: damage, litter… To tackle this, a radical decision has been made by the City Hall of Paris. 


A paid ticket to access the Montmartre hill

Starting from June 1, 2025, everyone wishing to visit the Montmartre hill will need to pay €15 for a standard ticket, and €10 for children under 14. You will also be able to book your timed ticket online in advance, or at the ticket office on site. 


Regulating the number of tourists in this particularly famous area

The goal of such a measure is to manage the influx to the hill in order to best preserve it and relieve the residents. Every year, Montmartre welcomes 11 million visitors. While car traffic is already being limited, with fewer tourists, we can expect a much more spacious neighborhood by summer 2025!

P.S.: Before we wrap up, have you taken a good look at today's date? Always keep a hint of skepticism… because as tradition goes, April 1st often comes with a splash of mischief, and at Bonbon, we absolutely love jokes. Don't be too disappointed; our pranks have sometimes turned into reality in the past… You never know.
