With Notre Dame closed and Tour Jacques rarely open for stamps, where do you get stamps in Paris? The tourist office did stamp mine but where are the usual others?

Unfortunately there no pilgrim places which offer special stamps but any place in France that is in business has a stamp so ask at museums, where you are staying and any cafe or resto.

Do scan these earlier Forum threads for much more about pilgrim sites in Paris and the camino within Paris.

See also this more recent thread re shells on the streets of Paris.

For a pilgrim connection by location you might search/ ask along the rue Saint Jacques which was the main medieval route south which pilgrims followed leaving Paris. One stop might be at the church Saint Jacques du Haut Pas; their early mission included helping pilgrims.

Happy exploring and Bon chemin/Buen camino!

The Archdiocesan office next to Notre Dame (10 rue du Cloitre-Notre-Dame, 75004 Paris) as well as any parish church. I like the one from St. Gervais near the Hotel de Ville as well as St. Jacques le Haut.

You can also go to Compostelle 2000 at

Went to both places to discuss routes, they are super helpful and friendly.

St. Germain des Pres has them (near Les Deux Maggots Cafe) offers them, go in front door and turn left to a small office-- I think glass doors. Very nice sello!
