  • A beautiful Cathedral

    This cathedral is worth a look inside for its grand proportions and its grand stained glass windows. We were blessed with a performance by a male Russian quartet on the day of our visit that sent beautiful music around the building and demonstrated its wonderful acoustics. The cathedral is set in a very pretty part of La Cite with a wonderful souvenir shop opposite.
