Best time to visit Les Invalides
Weekday vs Weekend
Fewer people visit Les Invalides on weekdays, making it the best time to go if you want a convenient experience. You can also visit on weekends, but the tour could be rushed due to the number of visitors.
Peak season vs Low season
Paris is a fairytale city in the summer months. The weather is bearable, and the city is buzzing with tourists. It is the best time to visit Paris and attractions like Les Invalides. However, it also means there's a significant rush. You can avoid the surge of tourists by visiting in winter, although the tradeoff comes in the form of cold winter winds.
Frequently asked questions about Les Invalides operating hours
Can I visit Hôtel des Invalides at night?
Unfortunately, the site closes at 6pm so no late-night visits. But the Dôme des Invalides and the surrounding area are beautifully lit up at night, offering a great photo opportunity from the outside.
Do the opening hours change for special events?
Yes! During special events or temporary exhibitions, the hours may vary. Keep an eye on their website for any extended hours or night openings.
Can I visit at sunrise to avoid crowds?
While Hôtel des Invalides opens at 10am, arriving early gives you a head start, as the site is less crowded in the morning.
What if I arrive just before closing?
You can still visit, but you'll need to make it quick. The last entry is at 5:15pm, so plan to arrive at least an hour before closing if you want to explore.
Can I visit during the holidays?
Most public holidays, like January 1st, May 1st, and December 25th, have exceptional closures, so check ahead if you're planning to go during those times.
