Description
Built under King Louis IX, this Rayonnant Gothic landmark is defined by 1,113 stained-glass panels depicting biblical history. Visitors climb a narrow staircase to emerge into a reverent upper level surrounded by color and towering stone craft. Alongside standard daytime tours, the space also hosts evening classical music concerts.
