Mapping Gothic France

Durham Cathedral, UK

Notre Dame isn't the only cathedral in Europe. Here we have a map of Gothic cathedrals in France, except some are in England, like Durham (above), which is almost in Scotland.


Mapping Gothic France
Building a cathedral was a massive project, similar in scale to our program to put a man on the moon. But it took 200 years to build a cathedral, now our time lines are much shorter. Might that be because we are traveling so much faster and we cannot see that far ahead?
