The castle in NantesSt. Peter's Cathedral: Admire the Interior
Upon entering the church, you are struck by the gracefulness of its height. This effectis achieved by running the thin support columns along the piers all the way from the ground without interruption to the central bosses of the vault passing the triforium and clerestory. At the same period (15C) the west facade and its large window with fine stone tracery was installed (the work of M.Rodier who did the loggias and decorative work at the Chateau). This shows above the organ loft. The South transept was built a century later with a lower giant stained glass window and an echoing clerestory one above. The choir, altar and chapels were still later (19C) but maintain the design.
