Information:

After the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame is Paris‘ most famous landmark. You probably know Notre Dame from the big fire that took place in 2019. Unfortunately, Notre-Dame is currently closed to visitors until 2024 due to renovation work.

Despite the major fire, the cathedral is without doubt the most famous and most photographed Gothic monument in the world. Construction of the church began in 1163. Almost 200 years later in 1345, the structure was completed. Notre-Dame is a magnificent structure with unprecedented details for its time. It lies picturesquely on the Seine and especially in the evening, this is an atmospheric spot when the cathedral is illuminated. You can enter the cathedral to admire the inside. The gigantic pillars, artworks and stained-glass windows impress everyone.

You will find Notre Dame is located on the Île de la Cité, which is a small island in the middle of the Seine.
