Facts About Notre Dame Cathedral (France) For Kids

Basic Information and History

Notre Dame Cathedral stands proudly in the heart of Paris, France, on a small island in the Seine River called Île de la Cité — imagine a magnificent church on its very own island!

Construction of Notre Dame Cathedral began way back in 1163, which means the first stones were laid about 860 years ago — that’s older than any building you’ve probably ever seen!
