The present Notre-Dame de Laon cathedral is the heir to an ancient building, built under the Carolingians and destroyed during the communal insurrection of 1112. Completed around 1235, the cathedral underwent a major restoration in the 19th century, and again in the 2000s. Note that since September 3, 2021, the building has been home to a “Blueberry of Memory” (a work of art by artist Matt Seaward) offered by the Bishop of Durham (UK) in memory of the soldiers who fell in the First World War.

Part of the "Umbrella Sky Project" in Laon, France, in 2025, a collaborative art installation designed to create a joyful, romantic atmosphere by transforming historic streets into a poetic celebration of spring and renewal. Floating bubbles, suspended umbrellas, and cascades of flowers filled the space with a sense of softness and charm.
