Introduction

The Sainte-Chapelle is a Gothic church built between 1242 and 1248, ordered by King Louis IX of France. The purpose of its construction was to preserve relics related to the Passion of Jesus, such as the Crown of Thorns and fragments of the True Cross. It is said that the cost of acquiring the Crown of Thorns was even higher than that of building the church. Today, the Sainte-Chapelle is an iconic building in Paris and attracts numerous visitors.
