Abbaye Fontfroide, France. The Abbaye was bought by a family around 1900, and restored from ruin. Sometime early in their stewardship (1910? 1920?) they hired an artist to redo the stained glass in the chapel. While it's not secular, the glass is distinctly different from most churches, and I found it particularly beautiful.
