Sainte Chapelle and the Louvre

Overwhelmed by the history and beauty we were shown today! The stained glass at Sainte-Chappell was jaw dropping! Commissioned by King Louis XIV in the 13th century with 1113 stained glass panels 😳.

We also toured through the Conciergerie that was a royal medieval palace that became a revolutionary court and Marie-Antoinette's prison.

We ended our day with a wonderful tour guide who showed us some amazing pieces in the Louvre. We are SO glad we had a him! He was funny, engaging and he made everything come to life with the stories behind the pieces. We only scratched the tiniest piece of what is there…can’t even wrap my brain around it all.Læs mere
