The five-aisled Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Paris is 130m/427ft long by 48m/157ft, with vaulting reaching up to a height of 35m/115ft. It can accommodate a congregation of 9,000, 1,500 in the
galleries alone. Accordingly the cathedral has frequently been the setting of great official occasions (e.g. Napoleon's coronation as first Emperor of the French). The powerful unity of the interior with its 75 round pillars is impressively enhanced by indirect lighting.
A special feature of the interior is the reworking of the Early Gothic side walls of the nave, which already had a gallery over the arcading, on the model of Saint Denis. The gallery was preserved instead of being replaced by a triforium as in other High Gothic churches. Above this were double pointed windows surmounted by rose windows - a feature borrowed from Chartres.
