The Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris

The Notre Dame Cathedral Paris, also known as Notre Dame de Paris (French for "Our Lady of Paris"), is a Gothic cathedral in the fourth arrondissement of Paris, France. Its main entrance faces west. The island is located on the Île de la Cité's eastern half.
Unlike older Romanesque construction, the sculptures and stained glass windows of Notre Dame Cathedral show a strong influence of naturalism. It was one of the first Gothic cathedrals, and it was built during the course of the Gothic era.
