Chartres Cathedral
Highlight • Religious Site
Over the centuries, the cathedral was adorned and decorated so well that it still constitutes an exceptional monument today.
Chartres Cathedral is a must-see, both for its stained glass windows, its overall architecture and its sculptures.

Saint Germain Church
Highlight • Other
Having a stained glass rose window on the west portal, the warm colors of the sunsets pierce the glass to flood the heart of the Church with light.
Seven large stained glass windows overlook the interior of the church. On one side we find: the Curé d’Ars; Saint Joseph ; the Child and Mary; Saint Pierre. On the other side Bernadette Soubirous; Jesus before the apostles Peter Jacques and John, Louis IX. But a bay remains, empty, filled by a sheet of Plexiglas. This is where the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist will take place. It is this last stained glass window that we will talk about next.

Saint-Georges Church of Saint-Georges-sur-Eure
Highlight • Religious Site
During the thirteenth century, between 1250 and 1270, the chapel gave way to a church. The parish - which will later become the commune - of Saint-Georges is constituted and becomes the capital of a seigneury of the chapter of Chartres. The church froze its architecture, as we know it today, in the sixteenth century around 1500, when it was enlarged by the construction of the South Chapel.
