King’s College Chapel in Cambridge is one of the most famous late medieval buildings in Britain, renowned for its vast fan‑vaulted ceiling and magnificent stained glass. The chapel belongs to King’s College, part of the University of Cambridge, and has become an architectural symbol of the city itself. It is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of late Perpendicular Gothic architecture in England.

Construction began in 1446 under King Henry VI and continued under a succession of monarchs, concluding the main fabric around 1515 in the reign of Henry VIII.

High in the antechapel, carved stone faces may portrait forgotten masons—stern, bearded figures captured during 1960s cleaning, blending into tabernacles.
