Discover the backstage of the restoration of the Chapel of the Virgin at the Saint-Sulpice church!
The proposed visit will cover the 11 floors of scaffolding and thus rise to the dome of the chapel, more than 24 meters high. It is an opportunity to discover the different stages and challenges of the restoration of various works of art (murals, sculptures, gilding).
The chapel had not undergone a complete restoration since 1947. The paintings, sculptures and stained glass windows are recovering their original brilliance thanks to this large-scale operation.
- No visits for children under 10.
- Go to the main entrance (Place Saint-Sulpice), right door facing the church.
- We recommend wearing a comfortable outfit and flat shoes to move around the scaffolding.
- A helmet will be lent at the beginning of the visit.
