The Towers of Notre Dame
The Gothic Cathedral of Notre Dame was built around 1200 by
Maurice de Sully. By about 1250, Jean de Chelles built the north arm and began
work on the south arm, which was completed by Jean de Montreuil.
The chapels of Notre Dame were constructed by the early 1300s.
The buttresses next to the chevet are one of the buildings major attractions.
Notre Dame is a priceless attraction. Indeed, it is one of the few free attractions in Paris - you only have to pay if you want to climb the towers
One person’s gargoyle is someone else's not worth the sweat
thanks all the same. Whilst the gargoyles don’t do awful lot (like springing to
life and eating people) they are impressive and you are rewarded with a great
view of Paris.
