Gothic Spire of Strasbourg Cathedral

The spire of Strasbourg Cathedral (completed 1439) soars above the city, once the tallest in Christendom. Its lace-like stonework exemplifies Gothic ambition, lifting the eye toward heaven while asserting civic pride. Surrounded by gargoyles and tracery, the spire symbolizes Strasbourg’s enduring place between earth and sky, faith and history, France and Germany.
