Église Saint-Aignan de Chartres

This church, established in 400 AD, 

sits almost unnoticed in a ville known for its great cathedral.  

A bit neglected, it is majestic in its own way, 

filled with colors of turquoise, coral, and gold.

Église Saint-Aignan de Chartres - Illumination

Just outside of Paris is Église Saint-Aignan de Chartres, not nearly as well known as the Chartres Cathedral, but exquisite in detail and color.  Established in 400 AD, most of the building today dates from the Sixteenth Century.
