The Crown Jewel of Gothic Art


Chartres Cathedral is not just any cathedral, it's the pinnacle of France's Gothic masterpieces. Partly built in 1145 and rebuilt over twenty-six years after the fire of 1194.
Chartres Cathedral is the quintessential monument of French Gothic art.
Its expansive nave, adorned with stunning sculptures from the mid-12th century and breathtaking stained glass from the 12th and 13th centuries, makes Chartres an unrivaled architectural gem.
