Double Spiral Stairs Rare Found in Two Buildings
Collier's notes the double spiral staircase is exceedingly rare and today exists in only two places the Vatican Museums in Rome and the Chateau Chambord near Blois France. The design features two sections starting on opposite ground floors with one rising faster above the other so the two staircases run parallel to the top floor. In Chambord the staircase encircles a giant stone column making the users unable to see each other.
