What makes it 49% Baby-Friendly: Babies enter free, but no changing table, no stroller upstairs, and only public courtyard toilets make the visit feasible only with a carrier and swift timing, so suitability is limited.
Note: Saint Chapel is 49% Baby-Friendly. You may want to consider other Baby-Friendly Things to Do in Paris for a more suitable experience.

Store stroller in the Lower Chapel:
Foldable pushchairs are stored free near the entrance.
Tip: Fold your stroller before security; staff tag and secure it.

Tip: Arrive 15 minutes before opening to beat crowds and get clear views.

The location of the “Kings Chapel” is oddly inside an area that is heavily guarded by armed police. The actual building is smaller than I thought (this isn’t Sagrada!).

Quick tour is all that is needed. Skip...

Very beautiful. The chapel features 13th-century stained glass, with 15 towering windows that depict over 1,100 biblical scenes.

It’s truly a mesmerizing kaleidoscope of color—light pours through the stained glass and transforms the space into a vivid, ever-shifting tapestry. Tip: Buy...

This church is truly a hidden gem that leaves visitors amazed. The chapel’s stunning stained glass windows are its main attraction, showcasing vibrant colors and intricate medieval designs that create a magical atmosphere inside. Even though it’s a relatively small space, the history and artistry packed into it make it a must-visit for anyone interested in architecture or Parisian history. I'm us...
In summer, arrive at opening to avoid crowds and heat. In winter, plan your visit at midday for the brightest stained-glass display.
