view from the top Notre-Dame Cathedral Review

Try to climb up the tower of the cathedral and enjoy the spectacular view from the top! It is a little strenuous, but it definitely is worthwhile!

Cathedral Notre-Dame Cathedral Review

The Cathédrale de Nôtre Dame took almost 250 years to get finished: it was built from 1190 - 1439! With a height of 142 m, it is the highest medieval building in Europe! Quite a few stonemasons, who had previously worked in Chartres, had then brought their skills to Strasbourg - so you can imagine, that this cathedral is VERY impressive!
