La Maison Picassiette an amazing mosaic house in Chatres, France.
My favorite cathedral.  Not only is the stained glass incredible, the cathedral also has Malcolm Miller.  Take his 75-minute tour and you will never look at a cathedral the same way again.

Mr. Miller has been guiding here since 1958.  Yes, you read that right.  1958.  59 years.  Mr. Miller has literally written the book on Chartres.  The 12th-century cathedral is his life's work, and his passion for the cathedral is obvious every time you join his tour.

If you find yourself in Paris, hop a morning  train to Chartres and catch his daily tour.  Contact the cathedral to confirm dates and times, especially during the off season.
