Notre-Dame's rich history traces back to the 4th century as a Roman temple dedicated to Jupiter. By the 5th century, King Childebert I transformed the site into the early Saint-Étienne Basilica. Later in the 12th century, Bishop Maurice de Sully directed the construction of Notre-Dame—a masterpiece of Gothic architecture that stands today as one of the world's most visited sites.
