Salisbury cathedral


Salisburyn katedraali ei oikein meinaa mahtua kuvaan. Torni on 123m korkea ja on Englannin korkein. Kirkon rakentaminen aloitettiin 1220 eli se on reilusti nuorempi kuin alla oleva Winchesterin katedraali.

Tyyli on englantilaista varhaisgotiikkaa.

Salisbury cathedral is almost too big to fit in the picture. The tower is 123 meters high and is the highest in England. Construction was begun in 1220 so it is younger than Winchester cathedral below.

The style is early english gothic.
