About Notre Dame Paris
Situated on the Île de la Cité in the heart of Paris, the Notre-Dame Cathedral has served as a center of Catholic worship for over 850 years, hosting major events such as royal ceremonies, Napoleon Bonaparte’s coronation, and the beatification of Joan of Arc. Immortalized in Victor Hugo’s 1831 novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, it became a symbol of resilience, beauty, and cultural heritage. A devastating fire in 2019 severely damaged parts of the cathedral, including the wooden roof and iconic spire. However, a massive restoration project has been underway to rebuild and preserve this treasured monument.
Notre-Dame is located on the Île de la Cité, and its forecourt (Parvis) marks Point Zéro, the official center of France, from which all distances in the country are measured.
Notre-Dame houses one of Christianity's most revered relics, believed to be the Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus during his crucifixion.
The largest bell, called Emmanuel, weighs over 13 tons and has been tolling since 1685. It rang to mark key events, such as the end of World War II.
The cathedral’s Rose Windows (particularly the North, South, and West roses) date back to the 13th century and are celebrated for their vibrant colors and storytelling artistry.
