About This Activity
Notre-Dame reopened in December 2024 after a €700 million restoration following the 2019 fire. The nave, rose windows, and spire are fully rebuilt with enhanced stonework and gilded details. Cathedral entry is free; a timed-slot reservation is strongly recommended to avoid queues. The towers reopened September 2025 with €16 entry — they offer gargoyle-level views over the Seine.
