Cathédrale Notre Dame de Senlis


This little side door looks hardly large enough for an adult to walk through. This French Gothic cathedral in Senlis FR was completed in 1191. We took the train there last November with our friend Owen Phillips who lives in nearby Chantilly. We were lucky enough to enjoy an organ saxophone recital while there. Tomorrow, we'll go inside for a look.

La porte rouge



The side entrance to the beautiful Cathédrale de Troyes ( Cathédrale Saint-Pierre-et-Saint Paul de Troyes). Begun  in 1208 and finished in the 17 century, I'm always amazed that these remarkable churches have stood the test of time.

La Cathédrale de Sens

Wednesday we traveled to Sens. This quaint town is home to the beautiful Cathédrale de Sens. One of the earliest Gothic churches it was begun in 1140 and completed in the 16th century. It is is undergoing some major exterior renovation at this time. We also toured the Musées de Sens. Photos from that and our walk around town to follow!
