The first image in that article is labeled Notre Dame, but that's the title for lots of cathedrals in France. That particular one is Notre Dame de Reims. The reproduced old image towards the bottom is jokingly called "Notre Dame back in the notre day", but that is clearly Westminster Abbey.

To add to your comment: Notre Dame simply means Our Lady. I think it's clear that that by itself is quite ambiguous.
