A window of coloured glass pieces held in lead, forming images; typical of Gothic and Neo-Gothic churches.
Vitraliile spuneau povești biblice celor care nu știau să citească și umpleau biserica de lumină colorată. Multe biserici catolice din Transilvania și Banat au vitralii realizate la sfârșitul secolului al XIX-lea și începutul secolului al XX-lea.
