- Summary:
- Philippe Auguste (heir of Louis XII) was one of the first sovereigns to be concerned with the city's urbanization, so that he had the main thoroughfare paved. This period is also known to be a great architectural Revolution: several monuments were built and became strong symbols of Paris. Philippe Auguste made the Louvre his first residence. In 1163, the first stones of Notre-Dame-de-Paris cathedral were set, meanwhile the king Saint-Louis ordered the construction of the Sainte-Chapelle, for sake of preserving the Christ's relics, that had been bought in Constantinople.
