BASSO DE MARCH

Beautiful cathedral with a lot of history. We arrived just a couple of minutes before closing time. All the candles and most lights were already off…what an unique experience. Peaceful and somewhat slightly spooky. However, the things we were able to see were impressive

Beautiful building with lovely stained glass windows. Very dark crypt (lamp out of order?), and pleasant cloister. A handmade, somewhat rustic, historical background from the history of the cathedral during the war. A little weird: indicated open on the schedule stuck on the door but entrance door closed, on the other hand exit door opened so people came in that way 🤷🏼‍♀️

This is one of the places you must see in Verdun. Beautiful Cathedral, which transfers spectators hundreds of years back to XVI century France, you definitely feel it, masterpiece of art and detail, structure, and gothic architecture of the era. Myself I love this type of place, especially when it is well looked after by the city councillors. Pristine condition of insides and outsides for the age with plenty of character.

As cathedrals go, Notre-Dame de Verdun is generally unremarkable. Parts of it have been destroyed, rebuilt or remodelled since construction began a little over a 1000 years ago. What is remarkable, however, is that any of the cathedral was still standing after the devastation of the battle of Verdun in 1916. Much of the cathedral had to be rebuilt after the Great War, but some of the exterior walls are still scarred by damage from the bombardments which destroyed much of the town.

Probably nice, I will never know. On the sign there were opening hours 10 to 12 and 14 to 17 hours. But guess? Not open at all (morning and afternoon) . No information nothing. It is just a disappointment and a waste of time.

Very nice place, free entry, no peoples in our time. Verdun is beautiful historical city with rich history not only about first war.

Beautiful and calm cathedral. Very beautiful colored glass windows...

Really dark and dingy. They have so many beautiful cathedrals in France and this was disappointing. The Cloister area was nice but they hadn't even bothered to cut the grass! Shame.
