Cologne Cathedral:At the highest point of
the Cathedral Hill in
Cologne
is
a
true
masterpiece of Gothic
architecture - Cologne
Cathedral. It is officially
referred
to
as
the
Cathedral of Saints Peter
and Mary. The mere

of
this

admiration.
The

to be woven from a lace
of stone towers, columns
and pilasters, united in a
single
architectural
composition. And the
general shape of the
building, when viewed

the form of a Latin cross.
