Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-Strasbourg
Once the car is parked, you can take a walk to one of Strasbourg's most famous landmarks, the Cathedrale Notre Dame de Strasbourg!
Built in the 12th Century, for over 200 years, the cathedral held the title of the world's tallest building, and today is recognized as one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world!
There are many ways to enjoy the cathedral, but I would recommend spending some time outside the building first, to take in the sheer size and beauty of the architecture before heading in to discover the interior!
