Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, France, is a stunning example of Gothic architecture, known for its breathtaking stained glass windows that cover nearly the entire height of the walls. Built in the mid-13th century by King Louis IX to house his collection of Passion Relics, including the Crown of Thorns, the chapel is located within the medieval Palais de la Cité. The lower chapel was intended for the palace staff, while the upper chapel, with its resplendent windows that depict over 1,000 scenes from the Bible, served the royal family.
