The Cathedral of Notre Dame is famous because it was the first structure to be built with flying buttresses, which are masonry bridges that place the main weight of a vault or a roof onto an outer support. The use of the flying buttress allowed the builders of the cathedral to achieve a great height. With its elaborate ornamentation and stained-glass windows, Notre Dame became the model for the Gothic style of architecture, which was popular in northern Europe from the twelfth century until the sixteenth century.
