=== Chapel ===
{{main|King's College Chapel, Cambridge}}The College Chapel, an example of late [[Gothic architecture]], was built over a period of a hundred years (1446–1531) in three stages. The Chapel features the world's largest [[fan vault]] ceiling; 26 large stained-glass windows, 24 of which date from the 16th century; and [[Peter Paul Rubens]]'s painting the ''[[Adoration of the Magi (Rubens, Cambridge)|Adoration of the Magi]]'' as an [[altarpiece]].

The chapel is actively used as a place of worship and also for some concerts and college events. The [[Choir of King's College, Cambridge|Chapel choir]] consists of organ scholars, choral scholars (male students from the college and other colleges) and choristers (boys educated at the nearby [[King's College School Cambridge|King's College School]]). The choir sings services on most days in term-time, and also performs concerts and makes recordings and broadcasts. In particular, it has broadcast its [[Nine Lessons and Carols]] on the [[BBC]]<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00gkvtk| title=Carols from Kings | publisher=BBC.co.uk | access-date= 23 November 2015}}</ref> from the Chapel on [[Christmas Eve]] for many decades. Additionally, there is a mixed-voice Chapel choir of male and female students, [[King's Voices]], which sings [[evensong]] on Mondays during term-time.
