The exhibition

Before you enter the Sainte-Chapelle, you'll have the opportunity to discover our exhibition on the history and reconstruction of the spire by Lassus in the 19th century.

Large-format photographs will reveal the finesse and symbolism of this daring needlework.

The exemplary restoration of the Sainte-Chapelle will give its craftsmen the chance to put all their expertise to good use in the restoration of Notre-Dame cathedral.
