Tower Climb: Angels & Monsters Saturday January 4 2025 at 2:00 PM

Enjoy an unprecedented close-up look at many gargoyles and grotesques while navigating the open-air walkway wrapping around the Cathedral’s two western towers—about 125 feet above the ground. The climb ends on the top of the northwest tower, which provides the best views of the Cathedral itself, as well as 360-degree views of the surrounding area.
