The Upper Chapel
Truly monumental and sumptuously decorated. All the windows and sculptures combine
harmoniously to glorify the Passion of Christ. They create a feeling of entry into Heavenly
Jerusalem bathed in color and light. Most of its fame is owed to its stained glass windows.
More than 1100 scenes are depicted in 15 stained glass windows and tell the story of
mankind from Genesis through to Christ's resurrection. The Windows depicting episodes
should be read from the left to the and right from the bottom upwards!
