Between faith, legend and history

the Cathedral ‘Reception & Visits Service’ offers you a journey into the fascinating symbols of a sacred place: a temple, heir to Solomon’s.

As you walk through the Cathedral, you’ll discover legends surrounding the statues.

The nail of the summer solstice will reveal you its reason of being.

The labyrinth will reveal its deep meaning, its history and its message for the present time.

The builders and the imagers of the Middle Ages, through enigmatic signs, will teach you the mysteries of life: time and eternity, the human and the divine, Earth and Heaven…

A visit to read an immense book of stones and glass, carrying a universal message.
