The silhouette of Notre-Dame de Paris has inspired cinema for over a century. From 1905, Esmeralda and Quasimodo came to life in front of Alice Guy’s camera. Many other films followed, Jean Delannoy (Notre-Dame, 1956), Georges Franjou (Notre-Dame, 1957), René Clement (Is Paris Burning?, 1966), Disney (Notre-Dame, 1996). And some around its destruction, whether real (Notre Dame is burning and Notre Dame, la part du feu) or imagined (Armageddon).
Who has never dreamed of laying the first stone?
All that was missing from the building, in the end, was a “revision” of LEGO bricks to, why not, inspire new filmmakers for stop-motion adventures around the cathedral. This will now be possible with the Notre-Dame de Paris LEGO box (#21061) that is integrated. Sets already dedicated to architecture and great monuments of the world (Eiffel Tower, Colosseum, Taj Mahal, Statue of Liberty…).
4,383 bricks, mostly beige and gray to recall the stones and roof of the cathedral, will be needed to complete this magnificent work, which existed in the Cathedral of Our Lady in 2019, before the terrible fire that will change its face forever. Pediment, belfries, vaults, columns, beams, rose windows, central spire, gargoyles…: this LEGO model shows all the beauty of the building in numerous details and even reveals its interior thanks to it. Removable to the roof. This is certainly a very nice object to display for collectors.
