vintage postcards

Crack! Notre Dame is peeping out of this Easter egg:) Did you know that city planners wanted to tear Notre Dame de Paris down during the Early 19th century? It's unimaginable but true. It was a crumbling edifice that seemed to close to ruin to be saved.

Victor Hugo penned The Hunchback of Notre Dame with the intent of sparking interest in the Cathedral's heritage. He helped raise funds for its restoration!
