The Diocese of Chartres is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or diocese of the Catholic Church in France.Chartres has been a site of Christian pilgrimage since the Middle Ages. The poet Charles Péguy revived the pilgrimage route between Paris and Chartres before the First World War. After the war, some students carried on the pilgrimage in his memory. Since the 1980s, the association Notre-Dame de Chrétienté, with offices in Versailles, has organized the annual 100-km pilgrimage on foot from the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris to the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Chartres. About 15,000 pilgrims, mostly young families from all over France, participate every year.
