Description

For almost two millennia, cathedrals have been among the most imposing, astonishing and inspiring buildings in Europe.

Regardless of faith, their scale and architectural daring has never ceased to spark wonder.

This guide traces the development of the cathedral from its earliest beginnings as a Bishop's house, through the Romanesque and Gothic peiods and up to the most extravagant contemporary designs around the world.

In doing so, it sheds light on social, religious and architectural history, as well as bringing the story of these extraordinary buildings to life.
