Reims Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Reims, France

The cathedral features three ornate portals with detailed sculptures, twin towers reaching 81 meters, and a 149-meter-long central nave with high vaulted ceilings.

Between 1223 and 1825, twenty-five French kings received their coronation at this cathedral, including Charles VII in 1429 during Joan of Arc's presence.

The building contains an extensive collection of medieval stained glass windows alongside modern additions by Marc Chagall, illustrating biblical narratives through colored light.

The cathedral opens daily for visitors, offering guided tours that explain the architecture, sculptures, and historical events connected to this religious monument.

During World War I, German artillery strikes damaged the cathedral, leading to substantial restoration work funded partially by the Rockefeller Foundation.
