What this place offers
What visitors are saying
Tickets are €5 for entry and an additional €5 for roof access. It's neat how tall it is inside and the history is interesting. You can still see the fire damage.
Beautiful church with a huge central round colorful vitraux. It is said that it was built by the neighbors that wanted to have a church near them.
Because of this you can see that in the front doors there are men carrying stones carved, representing such people.
Also you can find a small ship at the main altar.
Beautiful looking gothic church. Entry is free. We went on a Sunday morning and got to attend a mass too. We did not need any tickets. Must visit if you have time. The look is phenomenal.
The beautiful Gothic cathedral, one of the symbols of the Gothic Quarter. Tickets are charged, the price is 5€, but there are no crowds. Highly recommended.
