Hunchback of Notre Dame lived in Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris.
Even if he was a disabled man, he is a brave man as a lion.
Notre Dame Cathedral is the only friend that he has.
He fought hard for his ladylove but she was dead.
Because He was pitiful fate, he died of grief.
His friend Notre Dame Cathedral missed him.
So Notre Dame Cathedral takes after the hunchback more and more each day.
파리의 노트르담 대성당에는 꼽추가 살았습니다.
그는 몸이 몹시 불편했지만, 사자처럼 강한 사람이었습니다.
그에게 노트르담 대성당은 언제나 친절한 친구였습니다.
사랑하는 여자를 위해 싸우다가 그는 죽었습니다.
안타깝게도 그의 인생은 슬픈 운명이었습니다.
노트르담 대성당은 죽은 꼽추를 매우 그리워했습니다.
그래서 노트르담 대성당은 그의 모습처럼 닮아갑니다.
ノートルダム大聖堂の鐘楼にひっそりと暮らす鐘衝きせむし男は、
容姿こそ醜いが、優しく純粋な心を持った青年でした。
愛する女性のためには命をかけて戦う事が出来る勇敢な男でもありました。
しかし愛する女性が無くなった後には、彼も死んでしまいました。
せむし男の唯一な友達だった大聖堂はせむし男が恋しいあまり、曲がりかけている様子です。

Glasgow Cathedral, Glasgow, Scotland
Glasgow Cathedral is without a doubt the best medieval building in Scotland. It has an extraordinary unity, being built almost entirely between 1250 and 1280. Apart from a few minor details, only the tower and spire were still to come, and they were added in the 15th Century. In its Catholic days it hosted the shrine of St Kentigern (also known as St Mungo) the founder of Glasgow, and this was the dedication of the cathedral.
Its sense of massiveness is partly because it is set into a slope, and the east end is effectively on three levels, with a crypt and retrochoir below the choir at nave level, and the range of the east windows on the level above that. The breadth of the church is emphasised by the two-storey presbytery in the north-east corner, and the long, low Blacadder aisle sticking out on the south side. At the Reformation, the cathedral was able to host a number of dissenting congregations at the same time, using different parts of the building.
The Cathedral is, of course, not a cathedral at all any more, being under the stewardship of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland, which does not have Bishops. More properly, it is the High Kirk of Glasgow, but the current congregation is very sensitive to the history of the building, and have re-established an altar on the site of St Kentigern's shrine in the crypt. The great choir, almost as big as the nave, is used for services, and the nave is left pleasingly empty.
The most striking feature for anyone entering the cathedral for the first time is probably the vast range of glass of the second half of the 20th Century, especially in the choir, one of the biggest such collections in the British Isles. The cathedral has a deserved reputation for its musical tradition.
The cathedral is built from stone quarried from Barnack in Northamptonshire with decorative elements carved from Purbeck Marble and local clunch. The plan of the building is cruciform (cross-shaped), with an additional transept at the western end. The total length is 537 feet (164 m), and the nave at over 246 feet (75 m) long remains one of the longest in Britain. (This is the classic view of the cathedral taken by thousands of visitors every year.) The cannon is hiding a big white Ford Transit van somebody had parked right in front of the cathedral!!!!
Saint Vitus' Cathedral (Czech: Katedrála svatého Víta) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Prague, and the seat of the Archbishop of Prague. This cathedral is an excellent example of Gothic architecture and is the biggest and most important church in the country. Located within Prague Castle and containing the tombs of many Bohemian kings and Holy Roman Emperors, the cathedral is under the ownership of the Czech government as part of the Prague Castle complex. Cathedral dimensions are 124 x 60 meters, the main tower is 96.5 meters high, front towers 82 m, arch height 33.2 m.
St Giles' Cathedral is the historic City Church of Edinburgh. With its famed crown spire it stands on the Royal Mile between Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
Also known as the High Kirk of Edinburgh, it is the Mother Church of Presbyterianism and contains the Chapel of the Order of the Thistle (Scotland's chivalric company of knights headed by the Queen).
