2. The High Gothic style
The High Gothic style began with the construction of the Chartres cathedral. The particularity of this building was that it was the first of its kind that included, from the original plan, a flying buttress. This style also focused on creating an organic feel of light and space, renouncing at the gallery and lengthening of the clerestory. Â An example of High Gothic style is the St. Chapelle church.
In the High Gothic Cathedrals category are included: Chartres, Amiens, Bourges, St. Chappelle, Beauvais.
