Located on the Île de la Cité, Notre-Dame Cathedral, which has dominated the French capital for more than a millennium, was built over two centuries. Throughout its history, it has witnessed coronations, revolutions and destruction. It has also experienced periods of abandonment and was recently threatened by the terrible fire which threatened to destroy it completely.

This pop up book provides information on the architecture, history and cultural importance the building has held from its construction to today.
