Aix-la-Chapelle, la chapelle construite par Eudes de Metz, est une nouveauté en Gaule, bâti sur un octogone de 31 m de diamètre. Elle était ornée de riches mosaïques qui représentaient le Christ trônant au royaume des cieux. Ces mosaïques ont disparu (au cours du 18°s) contrairement à celles de Germiny-des-Prés.

La catedral de Aquisgrán despierta un gran interés cultural, por ser evidencia histórica del Imperio Carolingio y por la belleza de su construcción, con columnas originales retiradas de iglesias antiguas de Italia, la decoración con mármol, bronce y mosaicos finos. Las paredes de esta catedral han visto la coronación de 30 reyes alemanes en el trono de mármol.

The Carolingian Octagon (Palatine chapel). The Octagon in the centre of the Cathedral was erected as the chapel of the Palace of Aachen between 796 and 805 on the model of other contemporary Byzantine buildings (e.g. the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna and the Little Hagia Sophia in Constantinople).[11] The architect was Odo of Metz. The span and height of Charlemagne's Palatine chapel was unsurpassed north of the Alps for over two hundred years
