From arrow to arrow, from Sainte-Chapelle to Notre-Dame

Devoured by flames in 2019 and about to be reborn from its ashes, the spire of Notre-Dame de Paris often overshadows the story of its elder, built a few years earlier on the roof of the Sainte-Chapelle de Paris. This conference offers a dive into the archives and photographs of the MPP, in order to return on the crossed history of these two emblematic masterpieces of the history of the heritage.
Conference presented by Nina Derain, graduate of the Master «History of heritage and museums» in Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
