The must-see places

Installed in the André-Gagnon park, the AccroCamp tree climbing course offers more than 50 activities, a dozen zip lines and 6 courses, the easiest of which is accessible to children aged 6 and up.

That's 1 hour and a half to 2 hours of fun for the most daring. All this just a stone's throw from the cathedral.

 parc André-Gagnon, 6, place Saint-Jean, 28000 Chartres.

The park is open from mid-February to mid-November

Every spring, the Chemin des Arts offers a contemporary art trail in the heart of the city.

It links three dedicated places: the Saint-Eman chapel, the Saint-Vincent priory and the Saint-André collegiate church. The ten exhibitions of the 2022 edition will confront you with as many singular universes, born of various artistic practices: graffiti, photography, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, painting, stained glass and of course mosaic. This fall, Chartres will also host the International Mosaic Meeting.

Contemporary art is therefore on display in Chartres, from February to December, with a dozen different exhibitions and constitutes a unique proposal in the Centre-Val de Loire region.

Having reached us, the house of Raymond Isidore and its mosaics can only amaze. By their diversity and their number first of all, by the sum of work which they required then, but especially by their capacity to make us contemplative.

Raymond Isidore covered the walls, interior and exterior, as well as the furniture and the floors with glass and earthenware decorations that he collected on his walks. During several decades, the "Picassiette", nicknamed thus by derision, will gradually transform entirely his house, his furniture and even his objects. He painted and covered with multicolored mosaics all the spaces, from the floors to the ceiling, as well as his garden.

The stained glass museum, located in the cellar of Loëns, presents a unique collection of original stained glass from the Renaissance period.

The stained glass windows of contemporary artists are exhibited in one of the most remarkable gothic rooms in France, a 13th century building, classified as a historical monument. An educational room completes the visit with the presentation of all the stained glass windows of Chartres Cathedral, in the form of models and explanatory diagrams to identify all the scenes depicted in the windows.
