Description:

Exterior view: Chevet (the complex structure at the apse). Flying buttresses with an inverted Y form support the building around this eastern end of the cathedral. Inside there are 13 radiating side chapels - some of these visible here protruding at a smaller height from the main body of the cathedral.
