Formerly the palace of the archbishop, Palais du Tau houses a huge collection of tapestries and robes worn during the coronation of 32 French kings from the 11th century to Charles X in 1825. Several statues that were rescued and restored from the cathedral's façade are available for you to view, and the second floor has a terrific view of the cathedral. Planning Reims trip won't be overwhelming when you use Klarna Trips's itinerary maker.

Wow, I've been through a lot of feelings going through this place with a great historical load. If you are a fan of history, I recommend you to visit this place, it is the place where the kings were crowned, you can discover a multitude of personal objects of the royal family, clothes, jewelry. The location is impressive as a building, also right next to the cathedral. Everything is impeccable, mysterious, well maintained.

Great artifact collection. Worth getting the audio guide because all the exhibit descriptions are in French. I would recommend getting a combined ticket because entry price is 8 Euros.

This is a place where Kings have been crowned. It is stunning and mystical at the same time. Situated next to the Cathédrale Notre Dame de Reims, it is a place to see if you are fan of history and royalty. The display is amazing and takes you on a journey across the lives of Kings. We were alone in the museum early morning so that could be the best part of the day for a visit. Zero queueing and the whole place just for us, the stroll became almost a VIP one. It will not take more than 1 hour unless you really want to spend 5mins contemplating every display, carpet or statues. Equipped with the Education pass and a kid of 11, the entry was free on top of that. Plan your visit and buy your tickets in advance to go quicker otherwise wake up early and enjoy the museum at your own pace freely.

This is a must in order to get a full understanding of the cathedral. Definitely worth the entrance fee.

While I was unable to appreciate the beauty of its exterior, I truly enjoyed the history and timeless beauty of the interior!
