The Cité du Vitrail, in the French city of Troyes, is dedicated to the art of stained glass. From medieval to modern times, the museum’s extraordinary history will be on glittering display during this weekend's European Heritage Days on 16 and 17 September.

The City of Stained Glass, housed in the 18th century Hôtel-Dieu-le-Comte, has welcomed more than 50,000 visitors since it reopened to the public in December after extensive renovations.
