The current remains are those of the 15th-century gate and its barbican or artillery boulevard. The earliest remains on the site date back to the 1st century, with the remains of an ancient domus, a street, and its wooden gutter. The first Guillaume Gate was built around 1185; a wall can still be seen a little further along Rue de la Porte Guillaume. Source: https://journals.openedition.org/cem/14214?lang=en

A medieval building has shaped the city's skyline for centuries: the cathedral's two towers reaching towards the sky can be seen from a long way away. This early example of Gothic architecture not only shaped Chartres itself, but was also a model for many other church buildings for a long time, not only in France, but also spread beyond its borders to other countries.

The cathedral is the seat of the bishop of the Roman Catholic diocese of Chartres

Too bad it is never indicated the type of bike recommended.

A dream of a cathedral 🥰 you should definitely visit it at two different times of the day, as the glass windows look completely different depending on the position of the sun - phenomenal

A few points make Chartres Cathedral so unique: - the total of 176 original windows, which were created between 1215 and 1240 and flood the church interior with lots of light - Particularly noteworthy are the 3 rosettes on the north, south and west sides, where you can study the further development of architecture over the decades - the cathedral was never significantly destroyed and thus gives a very good impression of the High Gothic period - with her relic she represented the center of Marian veneration in Europe. The resulting flow of pilgrims was a main source of income for Chartres

Pleasant 🤗 Nature 🌳🌿 🏞️and especially no 🚗
