So you’ve seen the movie and the kids now want to see all things Miraculous while in Paris? No problem! Here are the top places to visit while in the City of Lights to truly experience Miraculous.
1. The High School:
Every Miraculous visit should start at the main location, Marinette’s school, Collège Françoise Dupont. While this school does not really exist, it is said to be inspired by the Lycée Carnot High School, located in the 17th arrondissement of Paris.
2. The Bakery:
Marinette’s parents own a bakery in Pairs. Boris Lumé Boulangerie is not completely copied, but was used as inspiration for the bakery in the series. Make a visit to this beautiful shop for a tasty treat.
3. Place des Vosges Park
Many of the outdoor park scenes from the show take place in the Place des Vosges, which is right outside the high school. Visit this real-world park and the surrounding area to relive some of your favorite episodes.
4. Trocadéro/Eiffel tower:
So much of the action in the show revolves around the Eiffel tower and even the nearby Trocadero plaza quick offers a beautiful view of the tower. Visit up here for iconic views of the tower and a delicious crepe from one of the many stalls.
5. Arc de Triomphe:
In the middle of one of the busiest roundabouts in Paris, this monument has a view straight towards la Defense and is accessible for visits.
6. The Louvre:
An iconic location of all movies. This important museum is the center of a beautiful district. Before or after, be sure to travel to the nearby Pont des Arts bridge featured in season 1 of the show.
7. Notre Dame:
In the new Miraculous movie, viewers are now introduced to the Notre Dame cathedral. While currently being remodeled after a fire, this is a beautiful area to visit despite not entering. Explore the many bridges nearby and watch the boats pass by.

This meticulously crafted itinerary is a seamless blend of enchanting spots that cater to the interests of both children and adults, ensuring a perfect experience for visitors of all ages.
