Short answer: On 15 March 2027: Deep blue and red light reaches deep inside from 12:25 to 17:00, strongest around 15:30; book the 14:30 slot. Every day of March is in the table.
The upper chapel is almost all glass: 15 windows about 15 m tall and a rose window at the west end. Sunlight through the south windows throws blue and red patches across the floor and the opposite wall. The north windows face north-north-east and get no direct sun in visiting hours, which is why one side always looks darker.
