Bayeux cathedral

Outside the cathedral Notre Dame in Bayeux. It was originally in Romanesque style but later rebuilt in Gothic style. The cathedral was consecrated in 1077 in the presence of William the Conqueror (who was also the Duke of Normandy) - but the build had started already around 1040 and mostly finished in the 15th century. And the tower in the middle of this shot is 19th century. Well, the lower part of it is properly medieval, but that part got renovated and a second level added in 1866 and all given that more-medieval-than-the-Middle-Ages look typical of the Neo-Gothic style.
