The Rose Window Goth

The Rose Window Gothic architecture of the Cathedral of Strasbourg in France features towering towers, pointed arches, large windows and window panes with biblical stories. In the design, the ribbed vault, the flying buttresses and the slender beam column are used to create a light and slender flying feeling. And a new frame structure to increase the strength of the supporting top, so that the entire building with a straight line, majestic appearance and empty space inside the church, combined with long windows with stained glass, creates a strong religious atmosphere in the church. . The plane of the church is still basically a Latin cross, but a pair of towers are added to the sides of the west end door.

#strasbourg is a city of grand churches, none more so than the famous Strasbourg Cathedral. Home to the European Parliament, Strasbourg is a European city through and through. There are plenty of cafes, museums, and things to keep you busy for days on end. A wonderful place to travel! #awesomepic #awesomearchitecture #churches #france #triplocal
