didn’t know about it.. and it’s simply magic! I think that chapel represents perfectly the features of French gothic style, since it has very thin vertical walls, great windows and a strong attitude towards elevation, enhanced by the golden decorations of the columns.
I think the roof is one of the most beautiful roofs ever seen… blue of France with lilies motifs, representing the royal family and the Nation.
The inner side of the building has a particular beauty, since it’s a combination of decoration and structure, it seems to be made of stone and laces, it’s incredible it’s been built in so little time…
Just one curiosity, one photo (the third) seems like it is made from a “superior” floor, since it’s seen an “inferior” floor. Is there a reason for that? And where’s the stairway?

Yes I think it is a masterpiece of architecture.
It’s hard to believe that the people of the High Middle Ages lacked so much science and technology that we have today, but yet were able to build this.

I went to Paris many years ago and I saw it too beautiful chapels. One was Notre Dame andSainte-Chapelle du Palais. I wish they would make buildings like this today.
Most people have heard of Notre Dame, but thank you for drawing attention to another piece of world heritage. Im certain there are many more near you.
I'm an atheist, but if there's one thing you can give to religions, it's that they are a great motivation to build the most magnificent buildings in human history.
It is stunningly beautiful, and the short construction time is amazing.
Pretty, and pretty wasteful. One of the many things that I hate about religion. Like all the money and work that went into building that place couldn't have been put to better use.
Yep, is pretty magnificent
Une tres jolie chapelle demoiselle Julie, je sais que dans ton pays il'ya beaucoup des jolies églises et des magnifiques basiliques 😊
