Three of the group were killed by SWAT teams and the remaining suspect is now the most wanted woman in France.
We take a look at what is known about the people who carried out the Charlie Hebdo massacre and ended their stand with two dramatic hostage situations.
Cherif Kouachi, 32 - Killed By Police
:: Killed 12 people with his brother during their massacre at the offices of Paris satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
:: While surrounded by SWAT teams, told French broadcaster BFM he had trained with Yemen-based Al Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula:
"I, Cherif Kouachi was sent by al Qaeda in Yemen, and I went there and it's (radical US-born cleric) Sheikh Anwar al Awlaki who financed me."
The group backed up his account and claimed it had directed the attack.
:: Also "passed through" an Algerian jihadist network in the 1990s, according to police union spokesman Christophe Crepin.
:: Jailed in 2008 for recruiting people to fight for al Qaeda against US forces in Iraq. Served half of a three-year jail sentence.
:: Reportedly mentored by Djamel Beghal, an al Qaeda terrorist, once based at London's Finsbury Park mosque and who had close links with radical cleric Abu Hamza.
Judicial documents say in 2010 Kouachi and his girlfriend travelled to southern France with Amedy Coulibaly and Hayat Boumeddiene to visit Beghal.
:: Had been an aspiring rapper who briefly featured in a TV documentary.
:: "Cherif was a very good guy but I lost him two or three years ago," Paris imam Mehdi Bouzid told the BBC's Today programme..
"Two weeks ago he was with my father, praying in the 19th district of Paris, and he was always with a smile. I never suspected he could make this thing."
Said Kouachi, 34 - Killed By Police
:: Like his brother, also suspected of having weapons training in Yemen with the al Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula group.
Stayed in the country from 2011 until 2012, according to security officials in the country.
:: Was on a US and UK terror 'watch list' (along with his brother), flagging them up as a potential danger. Britain also had them on a no-fly list to stop them entering the country.
Amedy Coulibaly, 32 - Killed By Police
:: Shot and killed a policewoman the day after the Charlie Hebdo attack, then killed four hostages 24 hours later at a kosher supermarket in Paris.
:: Told French network BFM during the siege that he was affiliated with Islamic State, reportedly telling the hostages: "They [the West] must stop attacking the Islamic State, stop unveiling our women, stop putting our brothers in prison for nothing at all."
:: Berated the hostages for paying taxes and supporting the French state. According to radio station RTL, he told them: "It is you who is financing (the government). You pay taxes."
:: Claimed he had coordinated the attacks with the Kouachi brothers - but only to "kick-start things: so when they started Charlie Hebdo, I started on the police officers".
:: Met Cherif Kouachi during one of several spells in prison and they saw each other frequently, according to a transcript of a police interview seen by Journal du Dimanche.
:: A crossbow, 240 rounds of ammunition and letters seeking false documents were found during a search of his apartment in 2010.
:: Sentenced to five years in jail in 2013 for planning a prison escape for an Algerian Islamist who bombed the Paris underground in 1995. Served only two months.
