Reims

The Palais du Tau and the Trésor de Notre-Dame

Więcej o książce

Reconstructed multiple times, most recently after its fire during the bombings of 1914, the Tau Palace is the former residence of the archbishops of Reims. By exploring the lower hall, the palatine chapel, the Tau hall, the Charles X hall, the cathedral museum, and the treasury, one discovers rich collections of stonework and a set of artworks that evoke the history of the palace as well as that of Notre-Dame Cathedral. Indeed, since the 5th century, with the baptism of Clovis by Saint Remi, Reims has been closely linked to the history of France. The coronation ceremonies of the kings of France took place in these two monuments: the statuary of the cathedral deposited in the museum, the goldsmithing, and the tapestries preserved in the treasury all recall the splendor.
