The Notre Dame has to be one of Paris's most iconic monuments and with good reason! Located in the heart of the Île de la Cité, the Cathedral offers a majestic display of Gothic Architecture and Stained Glass. The Cathedral is also famed for lodging some of the most famed artefacts of the Catholic faith in its reliquary, including the Crown of Thorns, a fragment of the True Cross and one of the Holy Nails. Brace yourself and climb the 387 steps to the top of the tower, where you can appreciate the seventeenth-century Emmanuel Bell, the largest in the Cathedral's collection, Viollet le Duc's spooky gargoyles and a stunning panoramic view of Paris. Or plunge down into the crypts of the Parvis de Notre Dame below the Cathedral to discover the hoard of city artefacts preserved from ancient times up until the nineteenth century.
