Facts and practical information

The church of Notre-Dame is a church built in a baroque style at the end of the XVII century in the city of Bordeaux, located on the Place du Chapelet in the rue Mably, set back and close to the Grand Théâtre.

The church was classified as a historical monument on May 18, 1908, as well as the organ case since January 12, 1971.

From 1971 to 1981, the church was closed following the collapse of part of the vaults. It was entirely renovated in 1982 by the service of the Historical Monuments, discovering the beautiful blond stone of origin.

It has remarkable acoustics, which explains the high number of concerts organized in this place.
