The Chartres, 11-circuit Labyrinth was onstructed around 1201 AD in the stone floor of Chartres Cathedral, France. Its distinguishing features are; 11 circuits, the turns arranged in four quadrants, 113 teeth around the perimeter, and a 6-petal rosette in the center. Medieval Christians visited Chartres (and
other cathedrals) and walked the labyrinth as an alternative to taking a hazardous pilgrimage to Jerusalem to walk in the "foot steps of Christ." Modern "pilgrims" walk the labyrinth path as one of many tools to enhance prayer,
contemplation, meditation, and/or personal growth. Chartres, France has been a
destination for pilgrims and seekers since the middle ages.


This 1-1/4 inch wide Chartres labyrinth key ring includes a detailed center rosette and all 113 teeth/lunations on the outer rim.
