Very beautiful gothic cathedral with a wonderful cloister. It is worth noting that this cathedral is the only cathedral in France that is not owned by the church or the state, but by the city of Toul.

A must-see in Toul...

The building is characterized by a main facade framed by two towers, the apse is flanked by two smaller towers, an ambulatory is missing, and the large transept is notable.

The main facade in the late Gothic style with the two towers is 37 m wide, the west facade is richly decorated. The entrance area has three large doors, above which there are niches in which there are still images. Among other things, you can see a large figure of Christ with Mary Magdalene at her feet, the group is framed by a wimperg, and above it there is a large rose window.

Of the 120 figures on the west facade, most were destroyed during the French Revolution; only eleven remained. A pelican with a monkey can still be seen on a buttress of the left tower.

The towers are 65 m high, they were built in the 16th century, their floor plan is square in the lower area and octagonal in the upper area. Construction of the spiers was abandoned in 1561. A small tower with early Renaissance elements and a bell from the 16th century rises above the middle of the west facade.
