Église Notre-Dame

Built between 1220 and 1240, this Gothic masterpiece greets you with an extraordinary façade whose three tiers of leering gargoyles are separated by two rows of pencil-thin columns. High atop the façade, the 14th-century Horloge à Jacquemart – brought here from Belgium, as a trophy of war, by Philip the Bold in 1383 – chimes every quarter-hour.
