Chartres Audio Tour: Cathedrals, Conquests & Timeless Echoes

Audio guide12 stops

Beneath the soaring spires of Chartres, secrets flicker like candle flames in forgotten crypts—far more than stained glass and saints. Let this self-guided audio tour lead you beyond the postcard views into ancient alleys and hushed halls. Discover stories and scandals most visitors hurry past, finding Chartres as few ever do. What power struggle once shattered the silence of Notre-Dame de Chartres Cathedral? Which artwork in the Musée des Beaux-Arts hides a forbidden affair? Why do some say the cathedral’s labyrinth still echoes with a lost, perilous challenge? Trace the city’s tangled timeline, moving from grand facades to shadowy courtyards in search of drama, mystery, and memories written in stone. Every corner whispers new truths and unveils hidden corners for those bold enough to look. Begin your journey into Chartres now and step inside the story few ever truly see.
