The first cathedral in Reims was built in the early 5th century, where Clovis, first king of France, was baptised by Archbishop St. Remi in 496. Louis le Pieux was crowned in Reims in 816 and replaced the cathedral with a bigger Carolingian building, consecrated in 862 and extended in the 12th century. The cathedral was replaced after a fire in 1211 by the current cathedral, in Gothic style. In 1429 Charles VII was crowned in the presence of Joan of Arc. The last king of France crowned in the cathedral was Charles X in 1825. The former archiepiscopal palace was shaped in the form of a Tau (letter T in the Greek alphabet), and was rebuilt in the 17th century. The Basilica of St. Remi, consecrated in 1049, contains the tomb of St. Remi.
