Excerpt:
“…swung between the sea and sky, this Gothic reverie caught in stone has drawn her pilgrims heavenward for two thousand stormy years…Gauls, Charles the VI ⚜ And now, we ourselves are here, only two hundred miles from Paris…tiptoeing across the Fall des Gardes and feeling the centuries drift backward ⚜”.
