Unveiling a Parisian Jewel: Sainte Chapelle Entry Tickets
Step back in time and witness the breathtaking beauty of Sainte Chapelle with our entry tickets!
This exquisite 13th-century chapel, nestled in the heart of Paris, is renowned for its stunning stained-glass windows, considered masterpieces of the Gothic era.
Here's what awaits you:
- A feast for the eyes: Witness the vibrant colors and intricate details of the chapel's stained-glass windows, depicting biblical scenes that come alive with sunlight.
- Architectural marvel: Admire the soaring ceilings, delicate stonework, and radiant light that defines the Gothic architectural style.
- Historical significance: Learn about the chapel's fascinating history, once a royal sanctuary housing sacred relics.
It is my favourite (besides cathedrals) as it has very special atmosphere. Also architecture and art work is great, but this atmosphere brings me back here. Not writing here about special history behind it.
Thank you for your kind words!
This is not a huge space--basically one very lovely chapel-sized church with stained glass over a simpler downstairs worship area for non-royals. But the stained glass! Wow! The panels tell stories from the Old Testament on one side and the lives of saints on the other. I could say the windows are spectacular but that's an understatement. Despite the relatively small space, you could literally spend all day reading the picture stories and admiring the artisans' work. Combined with the restored fresco work, you know you are in a place that the workmen of 700 years ago considered worthy of their best skills.
Thank you so much for your kind review!
Beautiful Chapelle. It’s not really big , but definitely deserves attention if you have extra free time. It does has a magnificent feel, when the rays of sun going through that marvellous vitrage windows.
