L'ancien Hôtel des Postes


This building used to be the Post Office in Chartres, but was changed into a 'Médiathèque' in 2006 (source). It's a beautiful building (click on pic right) and while we were in this old city they illuminated several buildings during the evening including the famous cathedral, but I wasn't able to make a decent photograph of the illuminations there (lack of technical skill, I am afraid). It was a beautiful sight to see; have a look at these pics to find out what I mean.
I will upload some interior pictures from Chartres' Notre-Dame cathedral soon - because some of them turned out really well in my humble opinion!
