I have seen it before but I dont know it was here on EB...

It is a very beautiful MOC, very detailed and realisticaly looking.

The windowglass is simply amazing !

Maybe you should post its from a guy named ROMAS though, I would like to get credit if one of my MOCs would be displayed somewhere (not that that is going to happen anytime soon )

Nice find, Teddy

I think I'm recognizing Port Antonio here of Evildead on the right hand side of the cathedral.

So maybe he knows who the builder is?

Kind regards,

Yes. The photograph was taken in an event of community 0937 (Portuguese LUG).

Dear Merkel,

as I said before I really like this church, so thumbs up.

But could you explain to me, what is up with the guy high up the right tower?

Kind regards,

Teddy

Hey, welcome to the discussion; it's so nice to see the builder of this magnificent piece joining in! I'd have to write several paragraphs in description of all the little details I love so much, but in short I can say that this is one of the very most meticulously crafted and authentically styled historical based creations in a good many of those that I can remember. From the pointed arches and ribbed vault in the front and interior to the flying buttresses in the rear and the stained glass all around, the exemplification of High Medieval age Gothic style is at an extent above of all else architecturally comparable! When I first came across this yesterday I browsed through every single photo in the showcasing gallery with a pipe organ transcription of Camille Saint-Saëns' Danse Macabre playing in the background; it was a very riveting experience.
