Constance d'Arles: resilient and determined
Hugh Capet, unsuccessful in his search for a Byzantine princess, arranged for his son Robert "the Pious" (so named for later acts of piety, rather than marital fidelity) to marry Rozala, the daughter of Berengar II of Italy and Countess of Flanders from her first marriage. She was considerably older than Robert, who divorced her within one year of his father's death. He had been living openly with Bertha of Burgundy (d.1035), Countess of Burgundy, and also a widow. However, Bertha was Robert's cousin: Pope Gregory V refused to sanction their marriage on the grounds of consanguinity, and excommunicated Robert. Robert repudiated Bertha around 1004; she remained unmarried and a force to be reckoned with.
In 1001, Robert married Constance of Arles (d.1034). She was a formidable, ambitious woman and their marriage, unsurprisingly, was difficult. Bertha's family opposed her, and Robert's advisors despised Constance because she favored southern customs and her Provençal family. When Hugh of Beauvais, close advisor to the king, suggested that Robert repudiate her in 1007, he was murdered by knights of Constance's kinsman, perhaps at her order. Her ambitions alienated the chroniclers of her day, who blamed her for several of the king's decisions and accused her of outrageous actions. In the account of a heresy trial of her former confessor, Constance struck out his eye with her staff. In 1010, Robert went to Rome, accompanied by his former wife Bertha, to seek permission to divorce Constance and remarry Bertha. His request was denied, he returned to Constance and together they had several children, with and against whom she plotted revolt against their father. At Constance's urging, their eldest son, Hugh Magnus, was crowned co-king with his father in 1017; after Hugh's death in 1025, Robert and Constance quarreled over which of their surviving sons should inherit. Despite his mother's protests, their second son, Henri, was crowned in 1027. Fulbert of Chartres wrote in a letter that he was frightened away from the consecration of Henri "by the savagery of his mother, who is quite trustworthy when she promises evil." Constance continued to encourage her sons to rebel, Robert agreed to their demands, and made peace until his death in 1031. Soon after that, Constance was at odds with both sons, Henri and Robert; she seized her dower lands and refused to surrender them to Henri's wife, Anna. Henri fled to Normandy, where he received aid, weapons and soldiers from his brother, returning to besiege their mother. However, Constance, ever wily and resilient, escaped, surrendering only when Henri swore to slaughter all the inhabitants of a town.
Despite this litany of malicious actions, contemporary critics of Constance also comment favorably on her concern for the royal treasury and her wise counsel to her husband. Her Provençal "foreignness" isolated her, and she struggled to balance her allegiance to both her natal and marital family. Seen in this light, many of her more notorious actions can be attributed to the absence of familial support and very real fears of repudiation. Penelope Adair argues convincingly that, given the limited resources at hand, Constance's efforts to preserve the royal treasury and her objections to alienation of royal property were "the well-founded concerns of a clear-sighted and determined royal consort."

Tussen 984 en 989 was daar 'n tydperk van onderrig en beswarende politieke verpligtinge. Die Gerbert-skool in Reims was besaai met roemryke name: Richard van Saint-Vanne, Gerard van Cambrai, Fulbert van Chartres, Richero van Reims, Radulf van Luik, Hartwich van St. Emmeram, Remigius van Mettlach, Erigero van Lobbes, Adelbod van Lobbes , Sigefredo, oom van aartsbiskop Adalberone van Reims, en Robert, seun van koning Hugh Capet; dan, die Jood Herbert van Lagny en Konstantyn van Fleury. Die vrae wat in Bobbio onopgelos gelaat is, het hom nie ophou bekommer nie en in hierdie gees het hy 'n paar monnike van Bobbio ontvang wat hom in Reims gaan besoek het. Miskien het Gerbert nie wanhoop om terug te keer na sy abdy nie; intussen was hy saam met Adalberone met politieke sake besig, terwyl Otto III in 983, op net drie jaar oud, aan die keiserlike opvolging toegewy is, onder leiding van sy moeder Theophanes en die moederkeiserin Adelaide.

Medieval Breastfeeding Miracles
I’ve posted a few excerpts already about the theme of the Madonna Lactans, and how images of the lactating Virgin Mary were symbols of grace and motherly love. As Olson notes, “Marian miracle stories show Marian devotion as largely functional and primarily focused on rescue and healing.” In terms of breastfeeding miracles, three major types can be found in the hagiographic literature of the 13th-15th centuries. They are listed below, with examples for each.
Milk Relic Healings
The ingestion of milk purported to be from the breasts of the Virgin Mary herself was believed to be able to cause miraculous healings.
Walsingham, the location of a Marian apparition that apparently occurred in the mid-11th Century, had a reliquary holding Marian breastmilk. Drops of this milk would be mixed into vials of water and sold to pilgrims in need of healing.
The Milk Grotto in Bethlehem is supposed to have been a location where Mary breastfed the infant Christ; some droplets fell to the floor and mixed into the dirt. Since then, scraping some dirt from the floor and mixing it with water was thought to create a curative - “demand was so great for the substance that the once small grotto had [to] become ‘greatly enlarged’.”
Petrarch, usually a skeptic of the ‘superstition’ of the ‘Dark Ages,’ recounts a vial of Mary’s milk in the Sancta Sanctorum [in the Lateran Palace, Rome] “by which so many had been restored to health.”
The Nursing Apparition Miracles
In addition to reliance on relics, there is a strong tradition of visionaries and Marian devotees who ingest fresh milk from the Virgin herself, either through a stream fired at them or through nursing from her directly. Men and women reported being recipients of this kind of mystical experience, but “most of the miracle accounts indicate men were the primary recipients.”
Blessed Lukardis of Oberweimar (d. 1309), an ailing nun, is said to have received a vision of the Madonna and Child, and was given milk at her own request.
Abbot Gautier de Coincy (fl. 1220s) reports that a monk with an ulcerous face was nursed by Mary; she took a breast that was “so soft, so sweet, so beautiful, and placed it in his mouth.” The monk made a full recovery.
Saint Fulbert, bishop of Chartres (d. 1028), was known for his extreme devotion to Mary and his constant invocation of Mary as his personal protectrix. When he fell gravely ill, Mary both nursed him back to health and provided him with three droplets of milk with which to fill a reliquary to be venerated.
Blessed Paula of Florence (d. 1368), while contemplating an image of the Madonna breastfeeding Christ, felt some droplets of milk fall from the icon and onto her lips.
The Imitatio Maria Breastmilk Miracles
In addition to be recipients of miraculous milk, a few devotees and mystics describe instances had become vessels for the production of miraculous milk. In these descriptions, the subject “casts herself as Mary, fully embodying her presence through the act of nursing.”
Blessed Margareta of Ebner, a German nun, describes her “longing and [her] desire to nurse the Christ Child” after contemplating an image of Him; she “was so powerfully compelled” that she took the image and pressed it against her bare breast.
Gertrude van der Oosten, a Dutch Beguine, is said to have “had such a visceral response when contemplating the Nativity that, like Mary, her own breasts would fill with milk.”
While living in the wilderness, Saint Christina the Astonishing (d. 1224) is supposed to have lived off her own miraculously produced breastmilk for nine weeks.
This information comes primarily from Vibeke Olson’s article (“Mystical Visions, Maria Lactans, and the Miracle of Mary's Milk”)

BanG Dream! and its Saints - Afterglow
That is how they roll to rule the stage. The next part of the series features the girls from Afterglow!
April 10 - Ran Mitake
St. Fulbert of Chartres: 11th century French writer and bishop. He was a pupil of Gerbert of Aurillac, who would later on to become Pope Sylvester II. He was responsible for the advancement of the Nativity of the Virgin's feast day on September 8 and for one of the many reconstructions of the Chartres Cathedral. Of the writings that can be verifiably attributed to Fulbert, the bulk consists of his letters. His most famous letter was to Duke William V of Aquitaine on the duties of feudal lord and vassal. He also wrote to fellow churchmen on a variety of liturgical issues including the appointment of bishops, excommunication, and obedience. He wrote approximately 24 poems which have sometimes been described as humorous, such as his poem about the monk in the desert, and most of Fulbert's hymns were written to glorify the Virgin.
September 3 - Moca Aoba
Pope St. Gregory I (Gregory the Great): 64th bishop of Rome who reigned for 13 years, the last imperial Roman Pope, and is the great-great-grandson of Pope Felix III. He is known for instigating the first recorded large-scale mission from Rome, the Gregorian Mission, to convert the then-pagan Anglo-Saxons in England to Christianity, and is also well known for his writings, which were more prolific than those of any of his predecessors as Pope. Throughout the Middle Ages, he was known as 'the Father of Christian Worship' because of his exceptional efforts in revising the Roman worship of his day, and his contributions to the development of the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, still in use in the Byzantine Rite, were so significant that he is generally recognized as its de facto author. Immediately after his death, Gregory was canonized by popular acclaim, and is the patron saint of musicians, singers, students, and teachers.
October 23 - Himari Uehara
St. John of Capistrano: 15th century Italian confessor and friar of the Franciscan order. Famous as a preacher, theologian, and inquisitor, he earned himself the nickname 'the Soldier Saint' when in 1456 at age 70 he led a crusade against the invading Ottoman Empire at the siege of Belgrade with the Hungarian military commander John Hunyadi. He is elevated to sainthood, he is the patron saint of jurists and military chaplains, as well as the namesake of the Franciscan missions San Juan Capistrano in Southern California and San Juan Capistrano in San Antonio, Texas. In California, the city of San Juan Capistrano and its eponymous Spanish mission that was made famous by the swallows that return there each year, were named for John.
April 15 - Tomoe Udagawa
St. Padarn: 6th century sanctified British Christian abbot-bishop who founded his church in Ceredigion, Wales. He built a monastery in Vannes and is considered one of the seven founding saints of Brittany. Padarn’s early vita is one of five insular and two Breton saints’ lives that mention King Arthur independently of Geoffrey of Monmouth’s Historia Regum Britanniae.
January 7 - Tsugumi Hazawa
St. Raymond of Penyafort: Spanish Dominican friar who compiled the Decretals of Gregory IX, a body of medieval legislation that remained part of church law until the Code of Canon Law was promulgated in 1917. The following year he revised and reissued his 'Summa de casibus', with an added part on the law of matrimony. Canonized by Pope Clement VIII in 1601, he is the patron saint of canon lawyers and his major shrine can be found in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

Man's Impact on the Environment
Catedral de Chartres Laberinto
The Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady (in French : Cathédrale de l'Assomption de Notre-Dame ), is a cathedral church of Catholic cult under the invocation of Our Lady in the city of Chartres , in the department of Eure and Loir , in France , about 80 km southwest of the capital, Paris . It is also the seat of the Diocese of Chartres, in the Archdiocese of Tours.
This cathedral marked a milestone in the development of Gothic and began a phase of fullness in the domain of technique and Gothic style, establishing a balance between the two. He is extremely influential in many later constructions that were based on his style and his numerous innovations, like the cathedrals of Reims and Amiens to which he served as a direct model.
The most important figure in the history of this diocese was Bishop Fulbert de Chartres , scholastic theologian recognized throughout Europe .
In 1979 it was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco .
The Labyrinth
One of the most famous elements of the cathedral is the labyrinth drawn on the pavement dating from 1205. It is a circular tiled 13 meters in diameter located on the axis of the central nave in which black and white tiles form a narrow path with multiple convolutions leading to the center. It seems that in this central circle there was a brass or brass plate with the figures of Theseus , Ariadne and the Minotaur . This was removed and melted during the French Revolution to make cannons. In the middle age there were numerous churches with labyrinths of this type that have been disappearing in later times. The path of the labyrinth represented a symbolic pilgrimage that the pilgrim had to walk or kneel to the central rosette. The measurements and layout of this type of labyrinths has a deep and complex numerological and philosophical symbolism that has its origin apparently in esoteric knowledge originating in the East. The labyrinth has eleven concentric circles and has the particularity of having almost the same diameter as the west rosette and from the entry threshold almost the same length as the height of the entrance, so if the facade extended over the interior floor , the rosette would coincide with the labyrinth, forming a symbol similar to a vesic .

Saint Fulbert
Aujourd'hui nous fêtons l'ami Fulbert , pas un petit rigolo celui là.
Poto avec le pape il est nommé évêque de Chartres. Il a aussi été précepteur du fils de Hugues Capet, on peut dire qu'il fait partie du gratin du XI eme siècle.
Pas bête pour deux sous il fonde une école où il enseigne la théologie (of course !) Mais aussi La géométrie, la médecine, la philosophie. Tous le monde le kiffe et veut entrer dans son école, il se fait la masse de follower (on disait des disciples à l'époque)
L'ami Fulbert c'est un gars bien et plein de talent, il joue les juges de paix pour réconcilier le comte de Blois et le roi de France (c'est un petit cœur sensible il n'aime pas les embrouilles) et quand la cathédrale de Chartres crame il fait du fundraising pour la reconstruire. Un bon gars je vous dis.
Et comme il a une petite âme de poète, il écrit des chants à la sainte vierge marie pour animer ses messes. Malheureusement il n'avait pas de chaîne YouTube ni de compte tiktok pour partager tout ça, je sens que vous êtes tristesse vous aussi.
Un gars sûr du catholicisme le Fulbert 💪🏻⛪

Chartres : ville des Templiers entre foi et mystère
Chartres et ses mystères… Marchez avec nous à travers l’histoire d’une des villes des chevaliers templiers. Une cathédrale aux milles symboles cachés dans siècles d’histoire. Le langage du Christ qu’on entend grâce à la beauté de l’architecture gothique. Et puis, un labyrinthe dont le parcours représente le chemin de la foi. Une ville et une cathédrale à découvrir absolument. Mesdames et Messieurs, voici à vous, un endroit magique à deux pas de Paris : Chartres.
La construction de la Cathédrale de Chartres (à l’époque, romane) avait été voulue par l’évêque Fulbert dans le XIIème siècle. Toutefois, l’église fut détruite en 1194 et seulement ensuite, réédifiée et terminée en 1225. Les mystères de Chartres sont plusieurs et pas encore tous dévoilés. Déjà son style finalement gothique avait ouvert plein de scénarios sur l’art et sur son interprétation : on peut surement affirmer que ce style représente l’architecture la plus tournée vers Dieu.
Tout d’abord, la hauteur des murs, très différente si on rappelle le style roman. Et puis, les vitreux qui brillent d’une lumière étonnante et qui représentent surtout la Vierge Marie, à laquelle l’église est dédiée. En fait, Chartres fut la première cathédrale dédiée à Notre-Dame et cela grâce à Bernard de Clairvaux : ce moine bourguignon sera le grand réformateur de la vie catholique et celui qui donnera vie à la théorisation de l’art gothique et de l’Ordre du Temple.
Pour les passionnés d'histoire, de mysticisme et d'ésotérisme, la librairie ECCE TERRA offre une fenêtre unique sur les secrets de la cathédrale de Chartres, son labyrinthe intrigant, les légendes des Templiers, et les connaissances ancestrales égyptiennes. Nichée dans le cœur de l'Alsace, cette librairie spécialisée propose une vaste sélection d'ouvrages et de ressources dédiées à ces sujets captivants. Venez explorer et plongez-vous dans une aventure de connaissance et de découverte ! https://www.librairie-ecceterra.fr
L’Artigot et les Templiers : un code mystérieux qui vient des anciens Egyptiens
Saviez-vous que entre Chartres et les anciens Egyptiens y-a-t-il d’un lien ? Et oui : le terme art gothique, en fait, vient de « Artigot », c’est-à-dire un code utilisé par les maîtres templiers. A leur tour, les Templiers avaient appris ce code mystérieux par les Egyptiens. Mais c’est quoi l’Artigot ? Il s’agit d’un ensemble de symboles et signes qui cachait des informations sur la construction des églises. Celui qui avait été initié à ces mystères, il avait l’accès à ces informations.
De plus, il y avait une corrélation entre architecture et musique : les premières églises furent construites selon les mêmes rapports numériques des intervalles de l’harmonie musicale. Comme ça, la cathédrale gothique a les mêmes rapports harmoniques que avait la création et la musique, et Dieu il vient représenté comme le grand Architect. Les anciens Egyptiens avaient eu la même idée de créer leur pays comme le reflex de la perfection du ciel et donc, des divinités.

Chartres et la signifiance ésotérique de son Labyrinthe
Le Labyrinthe de Chartres qui accueille chaque année plein de fidèles, représente un mystère très intéressant. Tout d’abord, il faut dire que, il fut réalisé par ceux qui ne pouvaient pas aller en Terre Sainte. Il s’agissait d’un long voyage d’ailleurs et pas tout le monde pouvait y aller. Le labyrinthe de la Cathédrale de Chartres, représente la ville de Jérusalem céleste dont le livre de l’Apocalypse parle. Cette figure qui est imprimée sur le sol de l’église, est divisée en quadrants et le parcours à suivre, tourne septe fois à l’intérieur de ces quadrants. Le numéro sept c’est pas par hasard, en fait : il rappelle les sept arts libéraux qui venaient enseignés à Chartres et donc grammaire, dialectique, rhétorique, musique, arithmétique, géométrie et astronomie.
En outre, il y a 144 rebords de la dentelure externe du labyrinthe qui symbolisent les 144000 justes qui seront sauvés lors du jugement dernier. Un parcours de foi, celui du labyrinthe de Chartres, que les fidèles font à genoux. Sa signifiance ? Le chemin intérieur que on fait pour rejoindre Dieu et l’accueillir dans notre cœur.

Les merveilleux vitreux de Chartres : sous le regard maternel de Marie
Cette mystérieuse cathédrale ne termine pas d’étonner. Prenons le cas de ses magnifiques vitreux : on dit que, malgré l’alternance des saisons, les fenêtres historiées de Chartres brillent d’une lumière à la même intensité. Pas importe si c’est le matin ou le soir, si on est en hiver ou en été. Quelqu’un a expliqué que cet effet incroyable de l’opalescence de la vitre, est dû aux mystérieux matériaux utilisés. Encore une fois, les Templiers ont plein de secrets qui attendent d’être dévoilés.
Mais c’est qui la vraie star de la cathédrale ? C’est Elle, la Vierge Marie, enchâssée dans un cadre ovoïde azur avec deux sceptres dans les mains. De plus, Marie est entourée par le Soleil et la Lune : cette image, en fait, souligne la valeur astronomique de la figure de la Mère du Christ, qui est au milieu du Cosme.
La numérologie de Chartres : le code caché des Templiers et ses révélations
Chartres, à 95 kilomètres de Paris, vous attend pour profiter de son art et son intense langage religieux. Et cette cathédrale parle à travers ses pierres, d’ailleurs. Et oui : le numéro des pierres dont est faite l’église est pareil celui des jours de la gestation de la femme. Cela signifie le chemin d’initiation, de croissance spirituelle qui amène à une nouvelle vie. En revanche, les chiffres mystérieux de cette églises ne terminent pas. La nef centrale est longue 74 mètres et elle croise une ligne idéale de 37 mètres ; cette ligne traverse le chœur. Si on additionne 74 avec 37, le total est 111, un numéro très important et fréquent dans les endroits liés aux Templiers.
On vous quitte avec un autre mystère de la Cathédrale de Chartres : sur une colonne du portail nord de l’église, il y a la représentation d’une arche et de son sacré contenu. Dans une incision en Latin médiéval, une phrase récit comme ça : « Ici a été envoyée l’Arche ». Et si la mythique Arche de l’Alliance était dans la crypte de Chartres?...

- Il Labirinto
Il significato del labirinto rappresenta l’ascesa dei christi fideles nel cammino personale di ciascuno. La presenza del labirinto è immagine della religiosità popolare fatta di gesti ed atti che esprimono la volontà dell’uomo di giungere al centro e arrivare a Dio.
Il labirinto di Chartres è stato costruito nel XIII secolo nel pavimento della navata, ha una circonferenza di 12,85 metri ed il percorso è di 261,5 metri.
Una riproduzione del labirinto di Chartres è incisa su uno dei pilastri prossimi all’entrata presso la cattedrale di Lucca. Il multiplo riprodotto ha misure decisamente inferiori ed è databile intorno al XII secolo, accompagnato dalla iscrizione: «Hic quem Creticus edit Daedalus est laberinthus de quo nullus vadere quivit qui fuit intus ni Theseus gratis Ariane stamine jutus».
Il labirinto è simbolo del pellegrinaggio terreno verso la Città Santa, nelle mappe medievali Gerusalemme era disposta al centro del mondo. La Gerusalemme simbolizzata nel labirinto non è quella terrestre ma la Celeste. La cattedrale è simbolo della Città Santa, come affermato dal Libro della Rivelazione.
Un altro simbolo del labirinto è la lotta che ha avuto inizio con il peccato originale di Adamo ed Eva. Nella Cattedrale di Chartres, proprio al di sopra del labirinto, è raffigurata nella vetrata dell’abside meridionale la vicenda genesiaca.
Il Giudizio Universale che campeggia sulla porta ovest del rosone occidentale misura la medesima distanza che dal centro del labirinto di Chartres misura dalla porta ovest, la
cui ipotenusa è la distanza che divide il centro del rosone dal centro del labirinto, che viene così a formare una sorta di triangolo.
- Il velo della Vergine
E’ una reliquia molto importante che fu offerta nell’876 alla cattedrale da Carlo il Calvo, imperatore del Sacro Romano Impero. Secondo la tradizione, il Velo della Vergine è la camicia che portava Maria al momento dell’Annunciazione, quando concepì il Verbo. Durante l’incendio della vecchia chiesa, nel 1194, si credette che il Velo della Verginefosse andato perduto ma venne ritrovata intatto: questo fu interpretato come il fatto che la Vergine Maria desiderava una chiesa più grande per la sua reliquia e così si spiegano l’entusiasmo e la rapidità con cui la nuova cattedrale fu costruita.
- Il recinto del coro
Jehan de Beauce scolpisce agli inzi del VI secoloben 200 statue in gruppi di 40 che rappresentano l’iconografia rinascimentale e rievocano la vita di Gesù e della Vergine Maria.
- La cripta
L’odierna cattedrale risulta dalla sovrapposizione di sette edifici di epoche differenti, collocati su di un antico luogo di culto druidico. Le parti non utilizzate come fondazioni per le costruzioni successive hanno formato due cripte concentriche. Vi si ammira anche una statua della “Vergine con Bambino” nera, replica di una statua medievale distrutta da un incendio.
La cripta interna risale alla chiesa carolingia edificata da Gisleberto nel IX secolo, porta il nome di caveau Saint-Lubin e si trova sotto il coro della cattedrale attuale.
La seconda cripta, chiamata crypte Saint-Fulbert, circonda la precedente, parte da un campanile e compie il giro dell’edificio.
Datata all’XI secolo, con i suoi 230 metri di lunghezza e i 5-6 metri di larghezza, è la più grande cripta di Francia.
Partendo dall’estremità della galleria nord, si arriva alla cappella di Notre-Dame Sous-Terre, probabilmente il più antico santuario mariano del mondo, dove si può contemplare una riproduzione recente della statua di un’antica Madonna, il cui originale, bruciato dai rivoluzionari nel 1793, era probabilmente la raffigurazione di una divinità femminile risalente ai tempi dei druidi.
La galleria diventa semicircolare sotto l’abside e si apre su tre profonde cappelle romaniche, inquadrata da quattro più piccole cappelle gotiche del XIII secolo. Vi si trova il pozzo detto des Saints-Forts (33m di profondità), costruito su una base quadrata gallo-romana, la cui acqua nel Medioevo era famosa per possedere virtù miracolose.
- Portale nord
Il portale nord, chiamato anche “portale dell’Alleanza”, con le sue statue rappresenta scene dell’Antico Testamento e della vita della vergine Maria. Le decorazioni sugli archi del portale centrale rappresentano episodi della Genesi. La porta a sinistra è sormontata da decorazioni che riprendono il tema del lavoro e dei giorni, e il tema delle arti liberali.
- Le Vetrate
La cattedrale di Chartres possiede ad oggi le vetrate più importanti risalenti al XIII secolo, che presentano un colore blu inimitabile. Comprese le rosette, le 176 vetrate coprono una superficie di 2600 m² e raffigurano principalmente santi e personaggi biblici: Noè, Giuseppe, il buon samaritano, il figliol prodigo, ma anche episodi della leggenda aurea di Jacopo da Varazze.
Il vetro delle vetrate era fatto di sabbia e di cenere di faggio fusi e mescolati ad alta temperatura con ossidi metallici e polveri colorate per colorare il vetro. I visi ed i dettagli erano dipinti e la pittura era cotta al forno. Poi i pezzi di vetro erano tagliati e fissati con piombo per fare un cartello. I cartelli erano riuniti dalle barre di ferro ed incastrati nella pietra delle finestre.
- Portale reale (facciata occidentale)
La facciata occidentale della cattedrale di Chartres costituisce l’entrata principale dell’edificio religioso. Incorniciata da due torri, presenta un gruppo scultoreo di 19 grandi statue e più di 300 figure. La decorazione dietro le statue presenta ancora influenze dello stile romanico con intrecci, colonnine e foglie d’acanto che testimoniano gli influssi dell’arte meridionale.
Il portale principale di Chartres contiene un pregiato rilievo di Gesù Cristo glorificato; quella del transetto meridionale si organizza attorno a delle immagini del Nuovo Testamento riguardanti il Giudizio Universale, mentre il portale opposto, situato al lato nord, è dedicato all’Antico Testamento e alla venuta di Cristo ed è famoso per il gruppo scultoreo dedicato alla Creazione.
