The Cathedral Platform

The ascent to the Strasbourg Cathedral platform is an unforgettable experience. For centuries, this iconic site has attracted visitors with its breathtaking panoramas and historical role, especially in fire surveillance. The spiral staircase leads you into the heart of the building, revealing unique views of the city.

At the top, 142 meters high, your gaze spans the rooftops of Strasbourg and, on clear days, extends to the Vosges and the Black Forest in Germany.

The architectural details of the tower and its spire, among the tallest in Europe, deserve special attention. The guardians' house, located where a second spire was planned, invites exploration of the monument's history. To enrich your visit, an augmented reality app allows you to compare medieval and contemporary Strasbourg, while an immersive audio narrative recounts the cathedral's construction.

A virtual guestbook lets you leave a trace of your visit, like the illustrious visitors of the past. Access to the platform, located at Place du Château, requires climbing 330 steps and good physical condition. Each ticket helps preserve this architectural gem.
