A Bit of History
Built by Louis IX in the 1240's to house relics from the Holy Land believed to
be the Crown of Thorns and part of the True Cross, this small gothic chapel is one
of the inspiring visual experiences of Paris. Much of this is due to its stained
glass windows which essentially surround the entire upper floor.
The chapel itself is now surrounded by the Palais of Justice on the Ile de la Cité
near Notre Dame. It has two "tiers", the first one at ground level being rather
dark and close, the second one having radiant tall windows, as well as a small
balcony.
