The Early Middle Ages

Charlemagne's Palatine Chapel at Aachen (consecrated 805 CE).

Charlemagne's Palatine Chapel at Aachen (consecrated 805 CE).

The Palatine Chapel is an example of Charlemegne's attempt to revive the values of the Roman Empire under the banner of Christianity. While the plan predates the cruciform basilica, it revives the classical round arch and heavy stone masonry, as well as the east-facing apse of Late Antiquity.
