Notre-Dame de ParisPhoto: Outdooractive Editors
Notre-Dame de Paris is the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Paris.
It was built between 1163 and 1345, making it one of the earliest Gothic church buildings in France.
The two towers are up to 70 m high and you can even visit them.
From here you have a wonderful view of the city skyline with the Sacré Coeur and the Eiffel Tower and come incredibly close to the grotesque (also called gargoyles) at the "Galérie des Chimères".
The French writer Victor Hugo dedicated a whole book to the cathedral with the historical novel "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" from 1831.
It's about the crippled Quasimodo, with a hump and a wart growing over one of his eyes.
The Parisians enjoy their bells, but abhor it because of its ugliness.
In the novel, the bell ringer finds despite his figure the love of a beautiful woman.
This story makes the cathedral so famous and therefore still captivates people today.
