Description  
La cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen. Exemple typique du gothique flamboyant,
caractérisé par la "dentelle de pierre" de ses sculptures.

Cette cathédrale est la plus haute (151m) et la plus large de France
(61 m pour la façade). C'est la troisième plus haute d'Europe après
celles d'Ulm (162m) et de Cologne (157m) en Allemagne.

Claude Monet l'a peint 30 fois dans sa série des cathédrales de Rouen.
