At the height of the great gallery of chimeras and gargoyles, which connects the base of the towers. Built 150 years ago, this scary bestiary came out of the imagination of the architect Viollet le Duc and is now part of the image of Notre Dame. Here, the famous Stryge of the north tower. In the background, l. to r., the Invalides, the Eiffel Tower, the south arm of the Seine, the Prefecture of Police, Defense district, Sainte Chapelle, the Palais de Justice and the Châtelet. Altitude 43 meters.
