Located in the Centre-Val de Loire region, Chartres is a city famous for its exceptional historical heritage and its important role in the religious history of France.

Its most iconic landmark is the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Chartres, a masterpiece of Gothic art, known for its remarkably well-preserved stained-glass windows and designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It attracts many visitors and pilgrims every year.

The city also has a charming historic center, with its narrow medieval streets, half-timbered houses, and the banks of the Eure River, which offer a peaceful setting. Chartres is also known for its nighttime event, “Chartres en Lumières,” which showcases its architectural heritage.

Today, Chartres is a vibrant city that combines history, culture, and modernity, while remaining deeply shaped by its religious and artistic heritage.
