What a fucking eyesore

Mods are fucking dead, post brutalism

...

...

Beautiful.

...

...

...

Gothic it is then

...

...

...

...

This is the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, I've been there it's amazing, even more impressive than Notre-Dame de Paris I'd say
It's less massive but the stained glass are unique

...

>tfw your town's cathedral took so long to complete that it's half Romanesque and half early Gothic

...

war it is then... No cunt, Maybe Italy, any cunt that didn't do reformation and burn their beautiful stuff to be fair. We used to have nice things. So did Ireland.

the Gothic Mary Magdalene church in the Castle District of Budapest, before WWII and now

Kek'd
Would visit the fuck out of it with Emma Watson at my arm / 10

Last time I was in there the fucking Harry potter theme was blasting. was good
Smells really nice too, godly place.

does any other country have this baroque+gothic combination in churches?

...

I mean Jesus, the huge organ doing do do da do
hairs on my neck
We have nothing else though.

Gothic + concrete

Pristine.
I only remember St Antony.
Padre Pio isn't there I'm guessing.

I remember seeing something similar in France but I have no idea where since I was too young to care
Fucking kids I swear

Mass would be over and the priest would be telling folks to go home.

Germany does (and we as well)

...

It's nice from the outside as well
Not really impressive or anything but located in a comfy place

Another rich interior

...

...

Comfy being a Catholic but you can be complacent. Then see how some lads work for months, years just to have what you were born as.
I don't even do confession anymore

...

twenty thousand Hail Marys, One Are Father. And never come back

I'm not even a believer but I'd fight for our churches and other religious buildings because they're parts of our history

Post big pillars user
N-No homo

>We have nothing else though.
And what about Cathedrals of Salisbury, Wells, Catenbury, Westminster, York, Exeter? Stop whining, Poland has literally 0 marvel tier Gothic. The best we got is probably pic rel.

At least people in Poland still attend their churches

Whats that Dawkins quote, he's realised that Christianity may be a bulwark against something worse?
I have doubts but, I don't want to see our centuries of history neglected. Our heritage.

I know. I was pretending, to get to see yours.
Don't hate me Karol.

>At least people in Poland still attend their churches
What's the point, all the self-conscious people know that religion is bullshit anyway, it's 21st century.

Last one for a while, a man gotta eat

I don't know but I kinda agree, I used to be fedora-tier and even though I doubt I'll ever believe at least I realize commenting "down with religion France is a secular country I shouldn't have to see churches on my way to work everyday" on facebook sucks

...

Mass is ritual which is healthy for the spirit and it bonds communities.
Miss the Irish Priest telling everyone he wasn't starting mass until the lads put the fags out and came in, he'd call them in by name.

Last masses I was at were funerals.
Might go tomorrow. Probably not.

...

...

I love those coloured roofs

how the fuck did they manage before inventing speakers, and if they did manage, how come they need them now, bolted into the walls, making interiors look like crap?

Not an actual quote.

There are a lot in Burgundy

...

...

There isn't an English link but here at least there are more pics fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuile_vernissée_de_Bourgogne?oldformat=true

...

...

Burgundy is my favourite French region:-)

...

...

...

Wow, this is the most beautiful castle I have seen

...

...

...

...

...

Because of the roof or globaly ?

Both, I really like the details. We haven't such castle here

French architecture is just a level ahead of everything else desu

Well with so many people living there the Netherlands don't lack marvels

Outstanding post

...

Saved, i already had pics of Bourges cathedral but they kinda sucked

...

...

best Polish cathedral?

just expanded my korea folder a lot so gonna post some seoul

...

...

...

probably not

I can post some SK (mainly Seoul) if you want

that one looks simply shit for me it's too messed up with all these different towers

...

...

>it's too messed up with all these different towers
but that's good. the cathedral is rich in architectural styles. it is basically a collection of the most precious art in poland

>it is basically a collection of the most precious art in poland
not really impressive art then...

yes, because 123. cliche french cathedral is so much better :^)

also symmetry, mir8?

123 cliche french cathedral honestly looks more imposing that the best Poland has to offer

Just look at that Cracovian cathedral, except for few ornaments it looks quite poor, towers are just straight rectangular or octagonal, no depth, and as a whole it does have quite a simple (poor?) shape. It looks like a barn with few messy towers and chapels here and there.

I don't think any Polish church really impressed me. It's weird that such a Catholic country where the Church held so much power and influence never really built any outstanding temple.

>imposing
art is not about being imposing
