Description

The Cathedral of Beauvais (Cathédrale Saint-Pierre de Beauvais), the 'tallest cathedral in the world', is an unfinished Gothic cathedral. The structure is one of the most daring constructions of Gothic architecture. It consists only of a thirteenth-century choir with ambulatory and seven radiating chapels, and a sixteenth-century transept.

On the site of the planned but never realized nave, the remains of the predecessor of the current cathedral can still be seen, a tenth-century Romanesque building known as Notre-Dame de la Basse-œuvre (the low work).
The complex also includes a simple cloister and a chapter house. To the west of the cathedral stands the bishop's palace from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
