Notre-Dame de Paris (cathedral (work by context); medieval patron, Maurice de Sully; 19th-century restorations...; 1163 to 1250, with many later ...; Paris (Île-de-France, France, Europe, World, Top of the T...;)

Note: Located at the eastern end of the Île de la Cité; built on the ruins of two earlier churches, which were on the sirte of a Gallo-Roman temple dedicated to Jupiter. Cathedral was begun under Maurice de Sully, bishop of Paris; ca. 1160 he conceived of converting two ruined earlier basilicas into a single grand building. Foundation stone was laid by Pope Alexander III in 1163; high altar was consecrated in 1189. By 1250, the choir, western facade, and the nave were completed. By mid-14th century, porches, chapels, and other elements were added. Neo-Gothic enhancements were added in the 19th century, including a spire over the transept. In 2019 a great fire caused severe damage..
