Notre-Dame de Paris 1 hour: Exterior tour, facades and secrets in French｜France

❗IMPORTANT INFORMATION❗
⚠️ Since July 1, 2026, Notre-Dame de Paris has reduced the number of time slots for visits inside the cathedral. This is why our tour takes place outside, in order to let you discover the cathedral without depending on these limited time slots.

➡️MEETING POINT
The guided visit will be conducted in FRENCH. It begins on the forecourt of Notre Dame de Paris, at the base of the statue of Charlemagne. To make it easy for you to find her, your live guide will be waiting for you with a sign saying "PAUSE CULTURELLE" and "GET YOUR GUIDE."

⏱️ THE TOUR
In 1 hour, facing the western façade, let yourself be surprised: every stone, every sculpture, every detail conceals a story that you could never imagine. Your guide will tell you the secrets of the cathedral in chronological order, from its construction to its rebirth after the fire of 2019. You will discover unusual and fascinating anecdotes that the untrained eye never notices.

❓WHAT ABOUT THE INTERIOR?
Explanations about the interior of the cathedral are also provided during the tour. This way, you won't be disoriented and will know exactly what to look for once inside.

️☀️GOOD TO KNOW
This tour takes place entirely outdoors.

⛪ Would you also like to see inside?
Access to the inside of the cathedral is free of charge and does not require a reservation. You simply need to line up for admission. You can visit it before our meeting or right after the guided tour, to put everything you've learned into practice right away.
