Troyes Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Troyes, France

The cathedral features two asymmetrical towers on its western facade, with the north tower reaching completion in 1634 while the south tower remains unfinished.

The construction of this religious edifice began in 1208 after a fire destroyed the previous Romanesque cathedral, with work continuing through multiple phases until the 17th century.

The cathedral contains a collection of stained glass windows from the 13th century, making Troyes one of the two most important French cities for stained glass history.

The cathedral stands at 48.300278 latitude and 4.081389 longitude in the center of Troyes, serving as the episcopal seat of the Diocese of Troyes.

The interior presents rows of pillars supporting high vaults, creating a visual pattern similar to a forest of stone columns throughout the nave.
