[[File:Notre Dame 01 KH3D.png|thumb|left|200px|A view of Notre Dame from the Square.]]
Both Sora and Riku arrive to La Cité des Cloches at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Square}}'''|大聖堂広場|Taiseidō Hirobi|lit. "Cathedral Square"}}, a large plaza in front of the Cathedral that dominates the world's skyline. The area is covered in many tents and banners, as well as a stage, presumably set up for the Festival of Fools. The ground floor of the Cathedral is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Nave}}'''|礼拝堂|Raihaidō|lit. "Chapel"}}, which comprises a large portion of its interior. It is a large area full of pillars and stained glass windows. The upper section of the Nave can be accessed by using Faithline or by using Flowmotion. Heading up the stairs near the entrance brings you to the roof of the Cathedral (labeled as part of the '''Square'''). Inside the door on the right side of the left tower is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Bell Tower}}'''|鐘つき堂|Kanetsukidō}}, where Quasimodo lives. The top of the Bell Tower contains two large bells.


Heading the opposite way of the Cathedral leads into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Town}}'''|街|Gai}}, a large residential district. Beyond the Town lies the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Bridge}}'''|橋|Hashi}}, which stretches over the River Seine{{?}}. At the end of the Bridge is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Outskirts}}'''|郊外|Kōgai}}, a more dilapidated part of the world. Like the Town, it is full of residential buildings and large scaffoldings blocking some alleyways.
The world's playable areas include the interior and exterior of the Notre Dame cathedral itself, the streets of Paris, the Court of Miracles, the bridge leading to the River Seine and the Miller's land.


From the Outskirts, the world diverges. Sora heads into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Graveyard Gate}}'''|墓地:入口|Bochi: Iriguchi|lit. "Cemetery: Entrance"}}, the entrance of the graveyard that leads into the winding {{nihongo|'''{{a|Tunnels}}'''|地下道|Chikadō}} under the city. At the end of the Tunnels is the entrance to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Old Graveyard}}'''|墓地:旧区画|Bochi: Kyū Kukaku|lit. "Cemetery: Old Plot"}}, where one grave serves as the secret entrance into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Catacombs}}'''|カタコンベ|Katakonbe}}, large winding tunnels filled with skeletons. At the end is the entrance to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Court of Miracles}}'''|奇跡の法廷|Kiseki no Hōtei}}, a tent and street cart-filled area where the gypsies have taken refuge at.
The world's playable areas are The Bell Tower, Nave, Square, Town, Bridge, Outskirts, Graveyard Gate (Sora), Tunnels (Sora), Old Graveyard (Sora), Catacombs (Sora), The Court of Miracles (Sora) and Windmill (Riku).-->
 
{{sec-stub}}
Once Riku arrives at the Outskirts, instead of heading towards the Graveyard Gate, he is chased to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Windmill}}'''|風車小屋|Fūshagoya}}, a muddy, hilly area where the only notable landmarks is a small cottage sitting beside a large windmill.

===Between ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''===
Sometime after [[Terra-Xehanort]]'s descent into darkness, his Heartless, [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], attacked many worlds, including La Cité des Cloches. These worlds were then swallowed by the darkness. Though it was restored after [[Sora]] defeated Ansem and destroyed the [[End of the World]], La Cité des Cloches remained in a state of deep sleep instead of returning to the Realm of Light, plagued by Nightmare Dream Eaters.

After Riku arrives at the city, Esmeralda passes him while fleeing Phoebus, who is pursuing her under Frollo's orders. Riku tells Phoebus he has not seen a gypsy woman pass, and he leaves to report to Frollo. Esmeralda returns to thank Riku and describes Frollo's obsession with destroying the gypsies. She advises him to go to Notre Dame for answers.

Meanwhile, Sora arrives in the city on his side of the world, and he passes [[Claude Frollo]] on the street. Frollo suspects Sora to be a gypsy due to his clothes and stops him, but he is interrupted by Captain Phoebus, who reports monsters invading the Town Square. Sora runs off to the square, followed by Phoebus, while Frollo voices his disgust over the gypsies and other "vermin" overrunning the city, darkness swirling around him.

In the square, Sora finds [[Quasimodo]] happily riding a [[Zolephant]], with other [[Nightmare]]s grouped around them. Sora tells Quasimodo to run, but he blithely refuses to leave the festival since he has been crowned King of Fools. When Frollo appears in the square and furiously calls to Quasimodo, the Dream Eaters become hostile, and Quasimodo is thrown to the ground. Sora rushes in to fight off the Dream Eaters, while [[Esmeralda]] takes Quasimodo into Notre Dame.

In the meantime, Riku heads for the Outskirts in search of Frollo. At the Bridge, Riku encounters the [[Wargoyle]], which begins to fire down at him from above, forcing Riku to run. At the Outskirts, Phoebus refuses to let Frollo attack the home of a family that aided gypsies, just before the Wargoyle arrives with Riku in pursuit. Frollo claims the Dream Eater is a divine power granted to him in order to wipe out the gypsies, refuting Riku's claim that he is too far gone and he leaves. Phoebus attempts to stop the Wargoyle from following Frollo, but he is quickly incapacitated. Riku heads off to stop Frollo, and a grateful Phoebus points him towards the cathedral.

Back on Sora's side, Sora encounters Phoebus, no longer captain, outside the cathedral. Phoebus is upset to hear that Esmeralda is no longer in Notre Dame, explaining that Frollo is planning to attack the gypsies in their haven, the Court of Miracles. Quasimodo overhears and tells them that Esmeralda gave him a pendant as a guide to the Court. Upon realizing the pendant is a map, the three of them head off to warn her of the danger.

Meanwhile, Riku meets up with Quasimodo at the square, who has saved Esmeralda from being burned at the stake. Quasimodo directs him to the top of the cathedral to find the Wargoyle. Riku tells Quasimodo to stay with Esmeralda, but is happy to see Quasimodo follow his heart. Inside, Riku finds Victor, Hugo, and Laverne taking out Dream Eaters, and he heads for the roof.

Riku finds Frollo reveling in the sight of the burning city. Frollo's darkness calls the Wargoyle to the top of Notre Dame, and its sudden appearance sends Frollo plummeting to the ground below. [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]] and [[Young Xehanort]] appear and mock Riku, telling him he is still afraid of the darkness, but Riku counters that he walks the road to dawn. They depart in a Corridor of Darkness, while Riku reassures himself that he has nothing to fear as long as he wields the Keyblade. Riku proceeds to fight and defeat the Wargoyle, breaking its wings and sending it falling into the flames below.

The Wargoyle crosses into Sora's side and crashes from the tower, blocking Sora from following Frollo. While Sora defeats the giant Nightmare, Frollo confronts Quasimodo and Esmeralda at the top of Notre Dame. He attempts to strike down Quasimodo, knocking them off the ledge. Esmeralda grabs Quasimodo's hand, while Frollo tries to attack again from atop a gargoyle. However, the gargoyle breaks off from the wall, sending Frollo falling into the conflagration below. Esmeralda loses her grip on Quasimodo, but he is saved by Phoebus below, who pulls Quasimodo to safety. The three reunite, with Quasimodo blessing Phoebus and Esmeralda's relationship. As the two of them leave together, Quasimodo tells Sora that he is ready to face the world outside and leaves Notre Dame.

Alone in the Nave, Sora is suddenly confronted by Young Xehanort and a vision of [[Vanitas]], who accuse Sora of making his heart a prison, even if he himself is not the prisoner, referring to Ventus. Confused by their words, Sora unlocks the [[Sleeping Keyhole|Keyhole]] that appears.

Afterwards, on his side, Riku speaks with Quasimodo, Esmeralda, and Phoebus. Quasimodo thanks Riku for making him realize that he was the one who trapped himself with the fear in his heart. Phoebus notes that Riku still keeps a lot locked inside his heart, and Esmeralda comforts Riku by saying that everyone has things they keep to themselves until they can sort them out. Asserting that he knows the path he must take, Riku unlocks the Keyhole that appears.

*In the cutscene after Sora defeats the Wargoyle, Quasimodo falls from Esmeralda's grasp, but is caught by Phoebus. However, he falls from the roof of the Cathedral and is caught at the supports below the roof between the bell towers. Once Phoebus pulls him up, they are back at the roof of the Cathedral.
