LUMINISCENCE takes visitors of all ages on a journey through time and the history of Saint-André Cathedral, inviting them to relive the original emotion that its great builders sought to inspire in the 12th century, and above all that of the millions of people who have visited this emblematic site over the centuries.
The cathedral has been the setting for such historic weddings as that of Eleanor of Aquitaine and Louis VII in 1137, and that of Louis XIII and Anne of Austria in 1615.
