Concurrently to the restoration of the Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral, the municipality has turned its eye towards the exterior, aiming to reimagine the surroundings of the cathedral. There is a twofold challenge: to reconnect the monument to the city, as well as the Seine, and to properly accommodate its 12 million annual visitors by offering a fitting setting to the monument, which should be proportionate to the passion it arouses, recently laid bare by the fire and the wave of emotions it unleashed. In order to achieve the best possible outcome, an international competition was launched in the form of a “competitive dialogue.”
After relating the historical highlights of this unique location, which was the birthplace of the French capital, the exhibition presents projects from the four teams that were invited to take part in the competition:
