The Louvre Palace, a monument historique in Paris

The term monument historique is a designation given to some national heritage sites in France. It may also refer to the state procedure in France by which National Heritage protection is extended to a building, a specific part of a building, a collection of buildings, garden, bridge, or other structure, because of their importance to France's architectural and historical cultural heritage. Both public and privately owned structures may be listed in this way, as well as also movable objects.

Buildings classified as monuments historiques include well known Parisian structures such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and the Palais Garnier opera house, plus abbeys, churches such as Saint-Germain-des-Prés, cathedrals such as Notre-Dame de Paris and hotels such as the Hôtel de Crillon. As of 2011 there were 1,816 monuments listed, 434 classés and 1,382 inscrits, in Paris.
