Chapelle Épiscopale Saint-Nicolas, Noyon, Medieval chapel in Noyon, France.

The Episcopal Chapel Saint-Nicolas features paired windows topped by an oculus, representing an early development in Gothic architectural design.

Construction of the chapel was completed in 1183, aligning with the third phase of building works at Noyon Cathedral.

The chapel stands as part of the former Saint-Benoît Episcopal complex, reflecting the religious importance of Noyon in northern France.

The structure maintains stabilized ruins following restoration work in 2010, allowing visitors to examine its architectural elements within the local museum.

In 1895, the first two bays and vaults were removed to create an unobstructed view of the cathedral's south transept.
