Dijon - Notre-Dame

Dijon - Notre-Dame
Notre-Dame, erected 1230 - 1251, is considered a jewel of 13th-century Gothic architecture in France. The planar western façade is quite unique - as it opens like a large screen to the spectator.

Seen over that "screen" is a jacquemart. It was brought to Dijon from Kortrijk (Belgium), after the looting of Kortrijk by the armies of Philip the Bold (Duke Philippe II of Burgundy) in 1382.
