Cathedral

Cathedral(Cathédrale Notre-Dame d’), in the heart of Picardy, is the tallest Gothic church and the largest cathedral of the 13th century in France.

Cathedral was designated as in 1981, based on “the coherence of its plan, the beauty of its three-tier interior elevation and the particularly fine display of sculptures on the principal facade and in the south transept.”

Open Time:
The cathedral is open daily from 8:30 am until 6:15 pm, or 5:15 pm during the winter months. It’s also closed from noon until 2:00 p.m. during the winter.

Note:
*Tourists who visit on Sunday can attend mass at 10:15 am, which offers Gregorian chanting during the service.

*The towers are open to visitors on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday from 2:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m.

*There is a fee to climb the cathedral towers.
