Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Paris

15 min

As of April 15, 2019: The world known saddening event that occured at Notre-Dame may impact a bit this part of the tour. We'll still be able to see Notre-Dame from a distance and I hope that we'll have access around it in the near future. Until then and until we'll be able to fully visit this gem again (she'll be back like a phoenix), we wish our divine Notre-Dame a prompt recovery. Warm hugs to Our Lady!
