Reims - the Cathedral

The Reims Cathedral is called 'Notre Dame.'  Of course, that is Mary.

I loved this gargoyle.  A cow!

Refurbishment is needed for maintaining the historic places.  I had to buy the postcard to get it without scaffolding!



We were here before closing, so it was nice and quiet for us.


Bridgette Simone did these stained glass windows.  Very unusual!



And Marc Chagall did these stained glass windows.  Re-building after war gives new artists a chance to do something completely different!



Joan of Arc. 

Love the arches!






This is the view of the cathedral from our B&B.

This is looking the other way.
And here is William ready to sleep!  He had a hard time waking up the next day.  The croissants were the best I had in Europe.
