Such magnificent beauty! “Saint Gatien's Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church located in Indre-et-Loire, France. It is part of the Archdiocese of Tours and is the metropolitan cathedral of the Tours ecclesiastical province. The edifice was built between 1170 and 1547.”
J'ai profité de la présence de la grande roue à la cité pour faire une photo de la cathédrale lausannoise depuis ce manège qui m'a permis de m'élever au-dessus des toits.
Les autres points de vue n’offrent pas cette perpective sur la cité avec la cathédrale bien en évidence devant le paysage lémanique.

San Lorenzo dates from 1180 - the B & W marble style was used more famously (but a century later) in places like Siena, but it is impressive here as well...

Dormition Cathedral in Kolomna. Three-domed Assumption Cathedral was founded in 1379 by Grand Prince Dmitry Donskoy after the first victory of Russian troops over the Golden Horde in the Battle of the River Vozha. Construction of the cathedral lasted one year, presumably in his paintings participated Pheophan Grek. Cathedral stood until 1672, when it was demolished due to dilapidation. On the place of the demolished church for 10 years was built new, preserved to this day (architect Meletios Alekseev).
In inside of this awe inspiring Cathedral in the heart of Ottawa, gives rise to respect and reverence. Quiet and colorful, the architecture is amazing.
This is Ottawa's largest and oldest, still standing Catholic Church and it is also the seat of the Archbishop
Five blocks from our house, this Cathedral is the oldest and largest church in our city. It always offers so many photographic possibilities.
From deep in my archives and re-edited, this is from 2012, just one year after I took up this fulfilling hobby :)
As you liked yesterday's church, lets stick with the theme, shall we? But yesterday, we had an old and catholic one, today it's time for new and orthodox. The Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ in Podgorica has only been finished in 2013.
It's even more impressive from the inside, but I'll show that to you tomorrow.

Ripon is located in North Yorkshire, England and is the third smallest city in England
The Ripon Cathedral we see today is the fourth to have stood on this site. Saint Wilfrid brought stonemasons, plasterers and glaziers from France and Italy to build his great basilica in AD 672.
So I'm definitely not an architecture photographer and certainly not good at panos but I did my best to show you the beautiful interior of The Holy Virgin Cathedral in San Francisco. Isn't this amazing?

Construite en brique sur un piton rocheux qui domine le Tarn, deux siècles ont été nécessaires pour son édification (1282 à 1480).
De style gothique méridional (style typique du Sud-Ouest de la France), elle surprend par le contraste entre son allure extérieure austère et la richesse picturale et sculpturale de son intérieur.
La plus grande cathédrale en brique du monde et l'une des plus visitées de France.
Classée aux Monuments Historiques depuis 1862.
Classée depuis le 31 juillet 2010 au Patrimoine Mondial de l'UNESCO.
The Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Amiens (French: Basilique Cathédrale Notre-Dame d'Amiens), or simply Amiens Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic church. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Amiens (currently Jean-Luc Bouilleret). It is situated on a slight ridge overlooking the River Somme in Amiens, the administrative capital of the Picardy region of France, some 120 kilometres (75 miles) north of Paris. It is the 19th largest church in the world.[citation needed]
Medieval cathedral builders were trying to maximize the internal dimensions in order to reach for the heavens and bring in more light. In that regard, the Amiens cathedral is the tallest complete cathedral in France, its stone-vaulted nave reaching an internal height of 42.30 metres (138.8 ft) (surpassed only by the incomplete Beauvais Cathedral). It also has the greatest interior volume of any French cathedral, estimated at 200,000 cubic metres (260,000 cu yd). The cathedral was built between 1220 and c.1270 and has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981.[5] Although it has lost most of its original stained glass, Amiens Cathedral is renowned for the quality and quantity of early 13th-century Gothic sculpture in the main west façade and the south transept portal, and a large quantity of polychrome sculpture from later periods inside the building.
