The article examines a specific role of medieval architectural language at the 1900 Paris World Exposition. Two ephemeral buildings evocated the presence of the history in a seemingly similar way: partial citations from different epochs - with a specific stress put on the Middle Ages - were mixed together to make stunning ensembles. The similarity of approach and overall impression hid cardinal differences.
