Welcome to our pilgrimage registration platform.

We are delighted to assist you in organizing your spiritual visit to Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, a place rich in history and faith.

The pilgrimage to Notre Dame and the Crown of Thorns consists of a silent journey of approximately 30 minutes, punctuated by five stations within the Cathedral. Dedicated spaces are available for prayer.

Notre-Dame welcomes tens of thousands of pilgrims each week, from Monday to Saturday. This pilgrimage is not available on Sundays and feast days. The reservation calendar is open six months in advance.

Why not come and pray with us? Mass is celebrated daily at 8 AM, 12 PM, and 6 PM. Vespers are sung at 5:30 PM. If your group includes more than 300 pilgrims, you may arrange a group Mass at 10 AM or 3 PM.

Please note that only reservations made through this website are official and free of charge. No other platform or individual is authorized to offer or sell these reservations.

 

This form is intended for groups of pilgrims (parishes, communities, movements) with at least 15 people. For individual pilgrims or small groups, access to the Cathedral is free and does not require a reservation. You can also check available entry time slots on our official website.

   



Guided Visits

Pilgrimage is a silent 30-minute journey, without a guide or lecturer. Please respect the silence to preserve the atmosphere of reverence and allow for true prayer.

This path of prayer is intended for groups of at least 15 pilgrims engaged in a spiritual approach: parishes, chaplaincies, communities, or groups of the faithful. A pilgrimage is, above all, a journey of faith: to come and pray, entrust an intention, and take part in a liturgical celebration.

If your visit is primarily cultural—to admire the cathedral’s architecture, history, or works of art—we thank you warmly.
Group cultural visits (with or without guides) will be available starting May 15. All relevant information is available on the dedicated page here.

Pilgrim’s Booklet

Our teams offer you a beautiful Pilgrim’s Booklet of around fifty pages to accompany your journey.
It is available for purchase at the Cathedral shop and  our website with home delivery options.
We encourage you to order your copy now so you can benefit from it at the very beginning of your pilgrimage.

This booklet may also serve as a way to identify pilgrims at the Cathedral entrance, thus facilitating security procedures.
It will also be a precious keepsake for all!

You will also find here an educational guide that could undoubtedly be helpful.

Additional resources are available on our online store.
