A UNESCO heritage site.
Proof of real technical genius, the Notre-Dame d'Amiens cathedral demonstrates architectural harmony. Built from 1220 to 1288, its size makes it one of the biggest Gothic buildings ever built: 145 m long, 42 m high, and a total volume of 200,000 m3. Its indoor and outdoor statuary is just as remarkable as its architecture. Since it was restored, the polychromy of its Gothic doors has become a main reference. This revelation gave rise to the "Amiens, a cathedral in colours" show, which offers a reproduction of the original medieval colours.

En famille

It's the largest Gothic building in France! Children are sure to be impressed by its sheer size. Notre-Dame de Paris could fit twice inside it. Standing high above the town, like a vessel of lacy stone, it houses many treasures. Can you find the little weeping angel, familiar to many children all over the world? What about the hidden maze or the world's oldest comic book? Yes, that's right, it's here at the very heart of the building. There's a special audio-guide for children which will tell yo

En amoureux

It is THE treasure of Amiens. Just think how many declarations of love and promises have been whispered within walls in 800 years! The towers soaring skywards, the stones and statues all tell a story, OUR story. Notre-Dame de Paris could fit twice inside this superb cathedral, this human masterpiece, this marvel of Gothic architecture at its most illustrious. It also has a secret, more intimate side, found in little nooks and alcoves, "far from the madding crowd"…
