Meet your guide directly in front of Notre-Dame Cathedral at the green Charlemagne statue on the cathedral square. After a short introduction, your guide will begin a complete explanation of the monument starting from the exterior, helping you understand what you are looking at before entering.

You will explore the main façade and discover the meaning of the sculptures, the Gallery of Kings, the famous gargoyles, and the flying buttresses. The guide will explain how the cathedral was built in the Middle Ages, how it influenced Paris, and why it became one of the most important religious buildings in Europe.

You will also hear the detailed story of the 2019 fire: what caused it, what collapsed, which artworks and relics were saved, and how the cathedral was reconstructed using traditional techniques.

After the exterior presentation, your guide will accompany you to enter the cathedral when public access is open and security conditions allow. Inside, you will visit the nave, chapels, and rose windows while receiving explanations about Gothic architecture, symbolism, and the religious role of the building.
