Guided tour of Strasbourg Cathedral
History, art and culture lovers rejoice! The Tourist Office of Strasbourg and its Region invites you to an exceptional guided tour of Strasbourg's Notre-Dame Cathedral and its surroundings. Immerse yourself in the heart of the city's landmark and discover all its mysteries! Founded in 1015 and completed in 1439, this architectural marvel is a masterpiece of Gothic and Romanesque art, where every detail has a fascinating story to tell.
Behind every stone corner of Strasbourg's Notre-Dame Cathedral lies a secret, a story, a legend. On the outside, its facade rises like a majestic living fresco, telling a thousand and one stories of the Middle Ages. The countless sculptures create a ballet of light and shadow, sublimated by the changing shades of pink sandstone in the sunlight.
As you pass through its doors, the Cathedral's stained glass windows, dating from the 12th to 14th centuries, are a veritable mosaic of light, elegantly adorning the Cathedral. The eye is then drawn to the monumental organ, whose case is adorned with automata that seem to watch over the place. And what about the astronomical clock? This Renaissance treasure, whose mechanism dates back to 1842, is a spectacle in itself, featuring the fascinating procession of the Apostles, faithful to the 12:30 appointment.
But this exploration doesn't stop at the cathedral! During this 1h30 immersion tour, not only will you discover the wonders of this edifice, but you'll also venture out into the surrounding area, where each building rivals the others in beauty and history.

Strasbourg is a two-thousand-year-old city with a unique cultural and architectural heritage.
The Grande Ile and Neustadt districts, which have witnessed the city's evolution since the Middle Ages, are monumental ensembles of remarkable quality, both of which are classified as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.
Walking through the streets of the city, marvelling at the prodigious Notre-Dame cathedral, observing the variety of its architecture, is to set off on a journey through time, to meet the events and people who have shaped it and contributed to its influence.
History, architecture, gastronomy, modern and contemporary art, famous men and women, legends, unusual anecdotes, visits by day, by night, in summer, at Christmas... there is something for everyone. Even children are not left out, with a dedicated program during the short school vacations.
In total, there are about sixty different themes, presented throughout the year, which allow you to discover our beautiful city in a new light. Whatever the theme chosen, we guarantee that no one will be disappointed by what they learn.
