Le Ciel de Paris, Restaurant on the 56th floor of Montparnasse Tower, Paris, France.
Le Ciel de Paris is a restaurant located on the 56th floor of Montparnasse Tower, sitting roughly 200 meters above the city. Large windows on three sides offer views across Paris and its rooftops from the dining room.
The restaurant opened in 1973 following the completion of Montparnasse Tower and was Europe's highest dining venue at that time. It represented a significant moment in how the city approached fine dining and urban architecture together.
The kitchen brings together French culinary classics with modern techniques, using seasonal ingredients and refined preparations. Diners here experience how contemporary French cooking respects tradition while exploring new flavors and presentations.
Elevators bring visitors to the 56th floor in moments, making access straightforward once you enter the tower. Visit on clear days to get the most from the views, as cloudy or rainy weather will affect what you can see across the city.
A pianist performs live music most evenings while diners watch the illuminated Eiffel Tower from their elevated seats. This pairing of live music with night views creates an experience you cannot replicate anywhere else in the city.
