Step into Notre-Dame’s past with a 45-minute VR journey through its construction, architecture, fire, and restoration at La Défense.

I had 2 hiccups with the VR Experience- one crashed due to someone knocking the cable off me and another because I was probably bowing (i.e. doing too extreme movements), but the staff was always on standby to assist.”
