Sainte-Chapelle

A reliquary of light — slender stone bones carrying 600 m² of stained glass that turn the upper chapel into a jewel.

Why this matters

  • Built in just 7 years to house relics of Christ's Passion
  • 1,113 individual stained-glass panels, 70% original 13th-century
  • Structurally radical: walls almost entirely glass
  • Survived French Revolution thanks to its courthouse role
