Level of the Rose. At the center of west facade, Notre Dame, the Virgin to whom the cathedral is dedicated. The statue of the Virgin Mary stands in the center of the facade, front to the rose, to welcome the 20 million of visitors who tread the square each year. The child Jesus holds in his hand a pomegranate, the fruit of love. In the background, the center of the Rose. View from the square, it forms like an aureole to the Virgin. Altitude 27 meters.
