Although not possessing the enormous dimensions of the great cathedrals of northern France such as Amiens or Beauvais, the notre dame de Paris is an impressive Gothic, harmonious, solid and grandiose construction. Its relatively small size gives it a remarkable stability and structural solidity. Over the centuries its pillars have indeed remained perfectly vertical and despite the age, no signs of structural failure have so far been detected.
Started in 1163, its construction was completed only around the middle of the fourteenth century. century.
The structure is fascinating inside as well as outdoors and you could spend whole days observing it, studying its details and the architectural and artistic refinements.
Visiting this church you can not only appreciate its architecture, its sculptures, its stained glass windows, its enormous rosettes with a diameter of 13 meters, the gargouilles ... but here you can also breathe the history of France. All the kings of France and also Napoleon bonaparte 1. were crowned here.
