🎧 Listen to Introduction
The brilliant use of new building techniques in the 13th century and the perfect combination of sculptural decoration and architecture make Notre-Dame de Reims one of the masterpieces of Gothic art. This former monastery still retains the beautiful 9th-century nave, which houses the remains of Archbishop Saint-Rémi (440-533), who performed the holy anointings for the Kings of France. The former Archbishop's Palace, known as the Palais de Tau, played an important role in religious ceremonies and was almost completely rebuilt in the 17th century.
