How To Visit The Sainte-Chapelle Of Paris In 2022
The Sainte-Chapelle of Paris (ie, Holy Chapel of Paris) is one of the most beautiful reliquaries in the world. Constructed in the former Palais de la Cité, it was intended to house very important treasures of Christianity (like the Crown of Thorns) and it’s estimated that the Holy Relics acquired by Louis IX cost three times the construction of the chapel! Apart from the Sainte-Chapelle, the only vestige of the Palais de la Cité is the Conciergerie, known as the prison of Marie Antoinette!
