The Treasure of Notre Dame, the sacred exhibition of the Louvre Museum
Louvre Museum
Until January 29, 2024
It’s an exhibition that might never have seen the light of day. Just a few months before the new coronation of Notre-Dame Cathedral and its complete reopening to the public, the Louvre Museum is celebrating the end of the restoration work by unveiling some of the rarest examples of its treasure miraculously saved from the flames. Through the presentation of a hundred relics, pieces of goldwork, illuminated manuscripts, priceless engravings and other figured documents, the museum allows a glimpse of a tiny part of the richness of one of the most beautiful French monuments, from its origins to 'to its revival and flourishing with Viollet-le-Duc under the Second Empire.
