Following the fire, archaeological excavations have shed new light on the history of the cathedral and its decorations from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century
In the middle of hundreds of burials, lead sarcophagi have been unearthed and possibly that of the poet Joachim du Bellay buried in 1560
Exceptional fragments of sculptures that made up the thirteenth-century rood screen (a gallery that separated the choir from the nave)
Currently on display at the Musée de Cluny, we discover the finesse and colour of the sculptures of the rood screen that were previously unknown to everyone
Finally, archaeologists have unearthed remains from the Carolingian era and antiquity that are very important for understanding the history of this site in the heart of Paris

It is a masterpiece of medieval architecture, emblematic of the early Gothic period
Built in the 12th century, Notre-Dame de Paris is one of the most visited monuments in Paris.
Located in the heart of the capital, on the Île de la Cité, it is as emblematic as the Eiffel Tower
Built over two centuries, Notre-Dame is remarkable for its architecture but also his sculpture. These are important milestones in the history of medieval construction
Even if it is not the largest cathedral in France, it is still very imposing with: 130 m long and 48 m wide! It reaches 96 m in height at the level of the spire
Since 1806, the “relics of the Passion” brought back from Jerusalem by Saint-Louis, have been kept in the “Treasury” of the cathedral which can be visited
The cathedral was also destroyed during the French Revolution, but the sculptures that were saved are fortunately visible at the Musée de Cluny !
The architect Viollet-le-Duc restored to the nineteenth century the famous neo-Gothic style spire that overlooks the building and that we can admire again, as well as the large rose window and numerous sculptures
Finally, let us not forget Victor Hugo and his novel Notre-Dame de Paris which, even today, contributes to the fame of Notre-Dame all over the world
