Cathedrale Notre Dame de Strasbourg

This huge cathedral, Strasbourg's most famous landmark, is an intimidating example of 13th-century Gothic architecture.

Reviewed By garryh702 - Port Coquitlam, Canada

From your first glimpse of the magnificent structure from blocks away to the breath-taking view when you enter the square surrounding this gigantic almost-eerie Gothic monument, it is truly overwhelming and awe-inspiring. My opinion is that it surpasses it's namesake - Notre Dame in Paris. Inside, the huge rose window, the pipe organ, the astrological clock all are simply amazing - especially when you consider they are all 5 or 6 centuries old.

Basilique Saint-Remi

Reviewed By SimonaRad - Paris, France

After seeing the big cathedral in the center, one would think that there is nothing else to see but this basilica is worth it. For special occasions they organize pipe organ concerts

Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Reims

Reviewed By X7772FNpaulf - London, United Kingdom

This is a stunning cathedral! It’s amazing, intricate, beautiful and awe inspiring from the outside and dramatic and breath taking from the inside. It’s sheer size and height is amazing and I’ve never seen such a wonderful set of stain glass windows ranging from the very old to ultra modern contemporary. It has a fascinating history and of course don’t miss the statue if the smiling angel. Now one of my favourite Cathedrals! .... and returning after dark (in summer) you can be treated to a superb light show projected onto front of Cathedral ... fantastic! Well done Reims.

Metz Cathedral

One of the tallest cathedrals in France, the 12th-century building is also known for its extensive use of stained-glass windows.

Reviewed By thomasozbun - Vicenza, Italy

Mostly built in the Gothic style between the 13th and 16th centuries it holds the largest expanse of stained glass in the world, most of which from famous artists throughout history such as Hermann von Munster from the 13th century and modernist Marc Chagall from the 20th. As soon as we entered, in fact, the interior was immense and amazing with a huge nave all decorated with stained glass. We also admired the sculpted extior too, built in the local yellow Jaumont Limestone.

Less severe than many cathedrals in France this is well worth a visit.You need time to enjoy the stained glass and the peace and tranquility of the surroundings. Suggest you visit here first before getting involved in Champagne tasting !
