On this unusual guided tour of crime and punishment in Paris, discover the dark side of the City of Light. Lurking in the shadows, the criminal lurks his prey, unaware that he himself may be hunted down at any moment.
When criminal acts proliferated, repression took hold. Indeed, in 1665, the murder of Jacques Tardieu, lieutenant of the Châtelet de Paris, caused such a stir that Louis XIV decided to reorganize the capital's police force.
So, from 36 quai des Orfèvres instead of torture of the Grand Master of the Knights Templar, this guided tour of crime and punishment in Paris will look back at the stories that sent shivers down the spines of Parisians.
A stop at the Police headquarters museum, rue de la Montagne-Sainte-Geneviève, will be able to complete this unusual guided tour of Paris.
