Catacombs de Paris
The Catacombs of Paris (French: Catacombes de Paris,
(help·info)) are underground ossuaries in Paris, France which hold the remains of over six million people[1] in a small part of the ancient Mines of Paris tunnel network. Located south of the former city gate "Barrière d’Enfer" (Gate of Hell) beneath Rue de la Tombe-Issoire,
the ossuary was founded when city officials were faced with two
simultaneous problems: a series of cave-ins starting in 1774 and
overflowing cemeteries, particularly Saint Innocents.
Nightly processions of bones from 1786 to 1788 transferred remains from
cemeteries to the reinforced tunnels, and more remains were added in
later years. The underground cemetery became a tourist attraction on a
small scale from the early 19th century, and has been open to the public
on a regular basis since 1874 with surface access from a building at Place Denfert-Rochereau

Saint Germain
The Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ ʒɛʁmɛ̃ de pʁe]), just beyond the outskirts of early medieval Paris, was the burial place of Merovingian kings of Neustria. At that time, the Left Bank of Paris was prone to flooding from the Seine, so much of the land could not be built upon and the Abbey stood in the middle of fields, or prés in French, thereby explaining its appellation.

Montmarte
Montmartre (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃.maʁtʁ]) is a large hill in Paris's 18th arrondissement.

The historic district established by the City of Paris in 1995 is bordered by rue Caulaincourt and rue Custine on the north; rue de Clignancourt on the east; boulevard de Clichy and boulevard de Rochechouart to the south.[1] containing sixty hectares.[2] Montmartre is primarily known for the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur on its summit and as a nightclub district. The other, older, church on the hill is Saint Pierre de Montmartre, which claims to be the location at which the Jesuit order of priests was founded.
