Are you in love with stained glass? Meet at the Lorin workshops, whose know-how and fame are known internationally. They are part of the last stained glass workshops dating from the 19th century in the world. This safeguard and enhancement project in cooperation with the city of Chartres (Eure-et-Loir) concerns as much the buildings listed as historical monuments since 1999, as the exceptional archives. Find the exhibition for free from July 3 to September 5, 2021 at 2 rue Saint-André in Chartres.
