Bourges - Notre-Dame

The church of Notre-Dame, to the north of Bourges old town, was built in the 15th C and, after being destroyed in a great fire in 1487, rebuilt in 1520-1523. It thus illustrates the transition from Gothic to Renaissance style.

To the south of Notre-Dame, is the Hôtel Pelvoisin (15th-16th C), said to have been occupied by the master builder who built the cathedral.
