The mesmerizing beauty of rose windows can be found in various medieval cathedrals across Europe. One such masterpiece is the stunning rose window located in the North Transept of Chartres Cathedral, France.

Not far from there, in Paris, stands Notre Dame de Paris cathedral, home to a majestic master organ and another captivating rose window. The delicate details and harmonious blend of colors create an ethereal atmosphere within this iconic place of worship. Moving eastwards to Reims Notre Dame Cathedral, we encounter an 18th-century rose window dedicated to Mary. Its radiant design pays homage to the divine mother figure and adds a touch of grace to this sacred space. Venturing further into Europe's diverse architectural heritage, we find ourselves at Notre-Dame-des-Carmes church in Pont-l'Abbe, where yet another enchanting rose window captivates visitors with its intricate patterns and kaleidoscope-like effect. Traveling southward brings us to Santa Maria del Mar in Barcelona, Catalonia. This Catalan Gothic church boasts a resplendent rose window that bathes its interior with a celestial glow - a testament to human ingenuity and devotion. Across the sea lies Elgin Cathedral nestled amidst Scotland's Highlands. Here stands yet another remarkable example of craftsmanship - a breathtaking rose window that transports visitors back through time as they admire its grandeur against the backdrop of jagged mountains. Eugene Viollet-le-Duc played an instrumental role in restoring many cathedrals during his time as an architect. His plan for Notre Dame showcases spires intended to crown its towers – envisioning how this architectural gem might have looked originally before restoration efforts began. In London's Southwark neighborhood rests Winchester Palace with its Medieval Rose Window serving as a reminder of England's rich history and artistic prowess throughout centuries past. As night falls upon Strasbourg, the Cathedral Notre-Dame stands tall, illuminated by the moonlight.
