Online booking for adults groups
The castle and ramparts have introduced online booking for adult groups for self-guided tours: visibility of the schedule over several months, booking at any time, immediate purchase or option to reserve are among the advantages offered by this new system!
- Simplify and speed up your bookings by accessing the online schedule and selecting your preferred time slot(s).
- To optimise visitor flow and enhance our visitors experience, time slots to 80 visitors are available.
- For greater flexibility, you can place options: up to 30 options are possible. Confirmation of the booking (payment for the visit) must be made 15 days before the date of the visit. After this deadline, the slots will be made available for sale again. Slots will remain available from one week to 48 hours before the date of the visit, but only for firm and final bookings.
Please note:
- Bookings will open the 12th of May 2026 for visits from 1 October 2026 onwards.
- Online booking does not apply to other types of visits (lecture tours, etc.), school groups, youth groups or specific public groups.
To access the platform:
- If you already have a professional account: log in now to the CMN's professional e-ticketing service
- If you do not yet have a professional account: create your account on the CMN's professional e-ticketing platform

New conditions of access for groups:
