What do you think?

A magnificent Gothic cathedral. Its low arched entrances enhance its height by drawing the eye upwards toward the ornate spires. The construction is remarkable, because it was done with bricks, and not the massive marble or limestone slabs common in other large churches.

  • There is a popular tale that Napoleon was so awestruck by Saint Annes's that he wanted to take it apart and re-assemble it in Paris.
