Chartres Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Chartres) is a great cathedral in Chartres, France. It was built between 1193 and 1250 in the Gothic architectural style over the burned ruins of an ongoing modernization project of a previous wood-roofed Romanesque church that had housed the tunic worn by Virgin Mary at Jesus's nativity.
