Formally known as the Cour de Cassation, the Supreme Court in Paris is the highest judicial authority in France, housed within the Palais de Justice on the Île de la Cité near iconic attractions such as Notre-Dame Cathedral. Visitors often marvel at its neoclassical architecture and rich history dating back to the 14th century, when the location served as a royal palace. While interior visits are limited to guided tours or legal professionals, the courtyard and surrounding areas offer a glimpse into France’s legal heritage. Nearby, you can explore the Sainte-Chapelle’s spectacular stained-glass windows or wander the tranquil banks of the Seine. Remember to check current security protocols and opening hours before planning a visit.
