{{RulesPlacingTile|title=1. Placing a wonder tile|rules=
If there is a '''wonder tile''' in front of you, you do '''not draw a tile''', but instead place your wonder tile according to the usual placement rules. Once you have placed it, you have to mark your wonder with one of the 2 meeples that you obtained along with the wonder tile. To do so, place the marker meeple in the center of the wonder (not on a city, road or field). This marker meeple remains there until the end of the game. For a better distinction from other meeples, you can put the marker meeple upside down.

Does the city on the Notre-Dame wonder tile span 2 or 4 tiles? The dirt patches surrounding Notre-Dame extend to 2 adjacent square spaces (top and right).

{{IconWorld}} A farmer placed in a field only bordering a wonder but not the city adjacent to the wonder will not score points for this city. This may happen to some fields on wonder tiles:

* The field between the roads on the Circus Maximus wonder tile (center right)

Note that wonders (including the dirt patches next to them) are separate features from cities. Wonders limit cities but are not part of them.
