Cathédrale Sainte-Croix d'Orléans is a magnificent Gothic cathedral dominating the skyline of Orléans with its soaring towers, ornate façade, and deep historical significance.

Its detailed exterior carvings, rose windows, and symmetrical spires make for dramatic architectural shots, especially at sunrise or sunset.
