Glasgow Cathedral, also called the High Kirk of Glasgow or St Kentigern's or St Mungo's Cathedral, is today a gathering of the Church of Scotland in Glasgow.
The title cathedral is honorific and historic, dating from the period before the Scottish Reformation and its former status as the Roman Catholic mother church of the Archdiocese of Glasgow and thus the cathedra of the Archbishop of Glasgow (which is now in St. Andrew's Cathedral, the present mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow). The current congregation is part of the Church of Scotland's Presbytery of Glasgow. Glasgow Cathedral is located north of High Street and east of Cathedral Street, beside the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.

The cathedral of Chartres forms one of the most spectacularly exciting ensembles of medieval architecture, sculpture and stained-glass windows.
Erected mostly between 1194 and 1260, the building remained relatively unharmed by the calamities of history, in particular the Religious Wars and the French Revolution.
The most prominent symbol of the cultural revival of the 12th century and a glorious rebuttal of the commonly heard notion of the "Dark Middle Ages", Notre-Dame of Chartres was designated World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979.
