In 1241, King Louie 9 decided to build a sacred chapel to collect his great wealth - the relics of Christ - when he was 27 years old. In the 13th century France was a country with wealth and power. The famous Notre Dame University is in Paris, with more than 200,000 cross-cultural students.

The masonry of Sainte-Chapelle was designed to support a wide area of ​​glass, becoming the most influential building of the era. Shape and decoration now replace the main purpose of Gothic architecture from height and volume. Smaller buildings can give new attention to details and refinement. Regional building practices also influenced Gothic construction. In northern Germany and the Baltic sea area, the main building materials are bricks, creating a great appearance. In Central Europe, the gothic ceiling ribs have evolved into beautiful stars and mesh patterns.
