This beautiful cathedral has a summer 22.00 light and music show for around 35 minutes The transformation on the cathedral facade is exceptional and extremely well performed. I would definitely recommend this free show

Cathedrale Saint-Pierre

Reviewed By 305carab - San Antonio, United States

The cathedral is a gorgeous example of beautiful gothic architecture...the stain glass alone makes the cathedral worth a visit. Make sure to do a lap around the outside of the cathedral as well, there’s some really neat old timey buildings and homes around the backside! It looks like the cathedral is undergoing some renovations on the inside and along the outside a bit as well, so just a heads up on that. But definitely recommend.

Basilique de Saint-Quentin

Reviewed By Frharolds - Wiltshire, United Kingdom

This is an amazing gothic basilica which is awesome in its interior. Of particular interest is a labyrinth from the Middle Ages set in the floor of the west end of the nave. This was a pilgrims’ “artefact” used on arrival in the church. Go and see for yourself!

Eglise Notre-Dame

Reviewed By KevinSadler2364 - Leicester, United Kingdom

The eglise Notre Damn is a magnificent church, rebuilt following the damage it suffered during the war. The exterior architecture is superb and is equaled by the ornate decoration inside.
