    An usually forgotten jewel. Most people go to notre Dame. This totally worth it! Stained glass everywhere you look, also this was the secret entrance of the assassins guild

    This Gothic chapel is possible more beautiful, and definitely more underrated than Notre Dame. The walls are almost entirely made of stained glass, so be sure to go on a sunny day.

    This gothic chapel contains some of the best stained glass windows I've seen yet and should be near the top of your list of places to visit in Paris.

    I'm surprised not many people go here. The bottom floor is impressive, but the top floor is so beautiful. You'll never see such beautiful stained glass. Great to visit after seeing Notre Dame.

    Get your Paris Museum Pass here. We get a bonus of free entry to Saint Chapelle after buying the pass. Entry is included w pass, but they allow PMP to be activated the next day after chapel visit.

    Absolutely underrated highlight of Paris! The beauty & atmosphere of the 2nd floor surrounded completely by amazing colorful windows is worth a short visit (15€ for max 45 min time needed).

    Most people go to visit Notre Dame, but this place is much more beautiful, worth to visit, buy ticket online and avoid the queue

    A hidden gem in the centre of Paris. Hard pressed to find similar breathtaking stained glass windows elsewhere in the world.

    The most lovely place to catch a classical music concert. A little jewel box.

    One of the most stunning places in all of Western civilization. Come for the stained glass... stay and linger for the moments of divine transformation.

    One of the most gorgeous stained glass displays in Europe. In conjunction with the Conciergie a visit to the home of the crown of thorns.

    This is a lesser known church in Paris. Make sure it's on your list. The upper hall has the most amazing display of stained glass you will ever see.

    This is a must see place in the hearth of Paris. Do not miss this place as the chapel is breathtaking. The vitras will just drive you mad.

    Dislike for grumpy french lady at ticket desk. Apparently a Bonjour is a must to be liked in Paris. But the chapel is beautiful, both floors :)

    Currently under renovation until late 2014. Still beautiful and plenty to see. Try to go on a sunny day.

    Be sure to go on a sunny day to see the effect on the stained glass windows. Each window tells a Biblical story so start at the western alcove of the north wall and work your way clockwise.

    This place was very cool. Each section of the glass tells a different part of history starting with Adam and even to the Passover story. All in stained glass.

    Even with some parts closed for renovations, the stunning glass windows worth a visit (with many pictures of them too).

    Some people make the mistake of just thinking it's just the bottom floor - there's a tiny staircase going up as well, DONT MISS IT

    The stained glass here is staggering. And the engineering to support that much glass just as impressive. A building over 700 years old!

    Sainte Chapelle has the most beautiful stain glass. 8.50 euro to enter and security check. Word on the street is that it holds the crown of thorns

    If you are looking for a place to hear classical music in Paris, look no farther than Saint Chapelle---All the other venues pale in comparison!

    Grab a combined ticket at the less popular but cool Conciergerie prison next door for 11 euros and you can get in the shorter line for st chapelle

    La Sainte-Chapelle ("The Holy Chapel") is a Gothic chapel on the Île de la Cité in the heart of Paris. It is perhaps the high point of the full tide of the rayonnante period of Gothic architecture.
