Musée de Notre Dame de Paris

While the view from the towers of Notre Dame is breathtaking and the interior of the cathedral is exquisite, the history of the cathedral is also very rich. Visitors can come to this museum, which was founded in 1951 and seeks to give a better understanding of the sanctuary. Although small, this museum located on the northern side of Notre Dame has some interesting items on display on the excavation of the square and the history of the cathedral. Its collections include paintings by Reguenet, watercolors and engravings of the cathedral, and documents about precentors and organists. Once you’ve taken a tour of the museum, you can simply cross the street to ascend the towers of Notre Dame.
