Which is Danish for Church of Our Lady. This is the cathedral of Copenhagen, built in Neoclassical style 1817-1829. It wasn't a cathedral back then (hence that it's not in the name, I suppose), but since the foundation of the Diocese of Copenhagen in 1922. This church is the fourth one on this spot since the founding of the first one some time not long before 1187 - all these predecessors were destroyed by fire (in 1313, 1728 and 1807 - the third and last time was in the Battle of Copenhagen when British troops bombarded the city).

The Befreiungshalle
is a neoclassical monument on the Michelsberg hill above the town of Kelheim in Bavaria, Germany.
It stands upstream of Regensburg on the river Danube at the confluence of the Danube and the Altmühl, i.e. the Rhine–Main–Danube Canal.
It is just downstream of the Danube Gorge, towering above its lower end.
It was commissioned by King Ludwig I of Bavaria to commemorate the victory over Napoleon in the Befreiungskriege of 1813–1815.

Monastery was founded at the end of XVI Century. Most of the current buildings were built in the 18th and 19th Centuries in a neoclassical style. Main Cathedral (at the photo) was built in 1821-1825.
Auch dies gehört zu Nürnberg, wenn auch zur dunklen Geschichte der Stadt, und der Deutschlands.
Die Zeppelintribüne mit Führerempore auf dem Zeppelinfeld des Reichsparteitagsgeländes. Wie der Name schon sagt, war das Feld auch ein Landeplatz für Zeppeline. Unter anderem landete auch die Hindenburg mehrere Male in Nürnberg.
Der Neoklassizismus des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts wurde in der nationalsozialistischen Architektur monumental übersteigert. Erhaben, mächtig und ehrfurchtgebietend sollte sie sein, für die Ewigkeit gebaut. Und so fehlten in den Plänen für das Nürnberger Reichsparteitagsgelände Farben oder schmückende Elemente, kaltes Grau war die vorherrschende Farbe. Viele Bauwerke auf dem Gelände wurden wegen des Krieges nicht fertig gestellt. Heute sind sie Denkmäler und Mahnmale zugleich, und werden von vielen Touristen besucht.
Einmal im Jahr dient das Gelände um die Tribüne als Rennstrecke für den Norisring. Im Rahmen der deutschen Tourenwagenmeisterschaften wird hier ein Autorennen ausgetragen.
This, too, is part of Nuremberg, albeit part of the city's dark history.
The Zeppelin Tribune with Führer's gallery on the Zeppelin Field of the Nazi Party Rally Grounds. As the name suggests, the field was also a landing field for zeppelins. Among other things, the Hindenburg also landed several times in Nuremberg.
The neoclassicism of the early 20th century was monumentally exaggerated in National Socialist architecture. Sublime, powerful and awe-inspiring it was to be, built for eternity. And so the plans for the Nuremberg Nazi Party Rally Grounds lacked color or ornamental elements; cold gray was the predominant color. Many buildings on the site were not completed because of the war. Today they are monuments and memorials at the same time, and are visited by many tourists.
Once a year, the area around the grandstand serves as a race track for the Norisring. A car race is held here as part of the German Touring Car Championships.
The Neoclassical revival, Corinthian style building was designed by architect Richard K.A. Kletting, and built between 1912 and 1916. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Beginning in 2004, the capitol underwent a major restoration and renovation project.
Poeke Castle, a moated castle in neoclassical style, is situated in a vast park intersected by numerous avenues. The castle's core dates to 1750 and was modified in 1872.
Belgium has a total of more than 3,000 castles and therefore holds the world record for the largest number of castles per square meter.
Kozłówka Palace is a large rococo and neoclassical palace complex of the Zamoyski family in Kozłówka, Lubartów County, Lublin Voivodeship in eastern Poland.
The palace was built between 1735 and 1742 and is one of Poland's official national Historic Monuments (Pomnik historii), as designated May 16, 2007, and tracked by the National Heritage Board of Poland. It currently houses the Zamoyski Family Museum in Kozłówka. The Kozłówka Landscape Park lies south of the palace complex.
The original palace was built in the first half of 18th century for Michał Bieliński, voivode of Chełmno; its architect was Jozef II Fontana. It represents the characteristic type of baroque suburban residence built entre cour et jardin (between the entrance court and the garden). Its architecture is original - a merger of European art with old Polish building traditions. In 1799, the Palace was acquired by the aristocratic Zamoyski family. It belonged to the family up until 1944. The palace experienced a period of great prosperity during the times of Count Konstanty Zamoyski who remodelled the palace in order to turn it into one of the most monumental and representative magnate residences in Poland.
Between 1879 and 1907, the palace was rebuilt in Neo-Baroque style, the chapel was modified (modelled on the chapel at Versailles Palace); a theatre, a second outbuilding and an entrance gate were also added. The palace also features a unique sewers system from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, which made it possible for the owners of the property to have access to some of the earliest modern bathrooms in Europe.
In 1903, the Kozłówka entail was established by Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, which meant that the property belonging to the Zamoyski family could not be sold or divided and automatically passed by law to the eldest heir.
In 1928, the chairman of the Polish Gymnastics Society Sokół, Count Adam Michał Zamoyski, organized a training camp in the palace gardens for the Polish national gymnastics team in preparation for the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam.
From November 1944, when the last owners Count Aleksander Zamoyski and his wife Countess Jadwiga Zamoyska were forced to flee their palace, it became the property of the Communist regime, whose grip on Poland ended in 1989. It currently hosts the Zamoyski family museum.
The interiors of the palace were preserved despite the ravages of the German Nazi and Soviet Regimes from 1939 to 1989. The original opulent design and most of museum quality art from the Zamoyski family collections remain.
The surroundings of the palace also include a historic chapel, French Baroque garden, stables and a carriage house. The palace grounds also feature the Gallery of Socrealism, the largest collection of communist art in Poland featuring over 1,600 sculptures, paintings, drawings and posters.
The white-plastered, neoclassical country house with basement was built between 1851 and 1854. The house has a monumental orangery, with an upper middle part and two curved side wings, all in brick with pilasters. Neoclassical means as much as "with sober, strict, yet calm forms". The commissioner for the construction was Maria van Mattemburgh. In 1878 another conservatory was added. On the street side of the manor is a hilly flower bed in the style of Pückler-Muskau. There is also a coach house and a plastered octagonal tea dome with wooden crowning. The romantic park landscaping with an English and a French garden dates from approximately 1878. It has an area of 17 ha. Since the garden is located on the Brabantse Wal, where there is a strong difference in height, it was used by the landscape architects. The tea dome is located on an artificial hill 11 m above sea level. Three visual axes run from there, one to the Markiezaatsmeer and two in the direction of De Blaffert. Below the tea house is an ice cellar, which nowadays houses bats, such as the long-eared bat, water bat, fringed tail and the long-eared bat. In the lawn is a meandering pond that changes into the brook De Blaffert, and over which are two bridges, a Chinese bridge and a bridge that is built from boulders. The garden contains a number of statues, which were placed between 1990 and 1995. The long gable farm Hildernisse is located on the estate. This farm was originally 17th century, but in its current appearance it dates from the mid-18th century. In the west facade is a niche with a statue of Mary. The farm has a barn and a bakehouse. The garden is considered one of the five most important style gardens in the Netherlands.

This Neoclassical building is one of 61 "Carnegie Libraries" in Michigan. These libraries were funded by the Carnegie Corporation of New York, a philanthropic endeavor by Andrew Carnegie. Over 2500 libraries were built between 1883 and 1929.
The Traverse City Library was built in 1904 and expanded in the 1960s. The addition, an awful, non-descript box of a building (in my opinion), was completely devoid of character, and inconsistent with the simple, elegant structure of the original. I cropped that addition out of this picture.
Today, Traverse City has grown, and a larger library has been built, with the Carnegie library eventually becoming today's "History Museum."

Cádiz Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church in Cádiz, southern Spain, and the seat of the Diocese of Cadiz y Ceuta. It was built between 1722 and 1838. The cathedral was declared Bien de Interés Cultural in 1931.
The Plaza de la Catedral houses both the Cathedral and the Baroque Santiago church, built in 1635.
The church was known as "The Cathedral of The Americas" because it was built with money from the trade between Spain and America. The 18th century was a golden age for Cádiz, and the other cathedral that the city had got, Santa Cruz, was very small for this new moment of Cádiz. The new cathedral was built from 1722 to 1838. The first person who designed the church was architect Vicente Acero, who had also built the Granada Cathedral. Acero left the project and was succeeded by several other architects. As a result, this largely baroque-style cathedral was built over a period of 116 years, and, due to this drawn-out period of construction, the cathedral underwent several major changes to its original design. Though the cathedral was originally intended to be a baroque edifice, it contains rococo elements, and was finally completed in the neoclassical style. Its chapels have many paintings and relics from the old cathedral and monasteries from throughout Spain.
In the crypt are buried the composer Manuel de Falla and the poet and playwright José María Pemán, both born in Cádiz.
Levante Tower, one of the towers of Cádiz Cathedral, is open to the public and shows panoramas of the city from on high.
The National Trust’s Ickworth House is an Italianate palace in the heart of Suffolk. This neoclassical building set in parkland was the residence of the Marquess of Bristol before being sold to the National Trust in 1998.
The house was built between 1795 and 1829, and is one of England's more unusual houses. The rotunda is flanked by segmental single-story narrow wings.
The oldest building at Queen’s, this graceful neoclassical villa was built as a private home for the local Anglican Archdeacon George Okill Stuart in 1839.
Okill Stuart's father, Rev John Stuart, had been granted the 200-acre plot of land in 1785 in recognition of his status as Chaplain of the King's Royal Regiment, Bishop Emissary of the Church of England, and one of Kingston's most important United Empire Loyalist leaders.
Summerhill was restored in 1984 and again in 2002 and is a designated Ontario historical site.
In 2010, the east wing was officially renamed Agnes Benidickson House in honour of the former Chancellor (see Agnes Benidickson).
The neoclassical Brandenburg Gate is Berlin's only surviving historical city gate.

Welcome to the United States of America.
The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in the middle of New York Harbor, in Manhattan, New York City. The statue, designed by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, an Italian-French sculptor, and dedicated on October 28, 1886, was a gift to the United States from the people of France. The statue is of a robed female figure representing Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, who bears a torch and a tabula ansata (a tablet evoking the law) upon which is inscribed the date of the American Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776. A broken chain lies at her feet.
The statue is an icon of freedom and of the United States: a welcoming signal to immigrants arriving from abroad.

The Sabatini Gardens are part of the Royal Palace in Madrid, Spain. Completed in the late 1970s, they are a neoclassical-style garden. They offer spectacular views of the North façade of the Royal Palace, some freshness and, last but not least, a quiet place where to rest in the city...
Interior from the church in Mörlunda, Småland, southern Sweden.
The church was built in 1840 (though not consecrated until 1843!). But there has been a church here long before that, probably since before 1329. This church was not a replacement of that one, however, since that one got destroyed in 1567 during hostilities of what is now known as the Northern Seven Years' War (1563-1570).
The altar-piece is a copy of The Descent from the Cross painted by Rubens 1612–1614, which you can see in the Cathedral of Our Lady, Antwerp, Belgium. This copy dates to 1840 and was made by the local talent Salomon Andersson (who made many pieces for churches in the area). It is a copy, but I have to admit it is a rather crude one, if you compare this one to the original.
