In the Middle Ages, dozens of Gothic cathedrals emerged from the ground, each more majestic and grandiose than the last. But who were the cathedral builders? Why did they embark on these pharaonic works? How were these major construction sites organized? To understand, Fred and Jamy take us to medieval France on a cathedral construction site. Fred meets very ingenious architects, but also journeymen-craftsmen, artists and workers. All are confronted with the demands of the bishops, who, for their prestige, want to build ever larger, ever higher cathedrals.
