A Lady chapel or lady chapel is a chapel dedicated to Mary, mother of Jesus, particularly one inside a cathedral or other large church. The chapels are also known as a Mary chapel or a Marian chapel, and they are traditionally the largest side chapel of a cathedral, placed eastward from the high altar and forming a projection from the main building, as in Winchester Cathedral.
