This is the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris, I've been there it's amazing, even more impressive than Notre-Dame de Paris I'd say
It's less massive but the stained glass are unique

What's the point, all the self-conscious people know that religion is bullshit anyway, it's 21st century.

I don't know but I kinda agree, I used to be fedora-tier and even though I doubt I'll ever believe at least I realize commenting "down with religion France is a secular country I shouldn't have to see churches on my way to work everyday" on facebook sucks

Mass is ritual which is healthy for the spirit and it bonds communities.
Miss the Irish Priest telling everyone he wasn't starting mass until the lads put the fags out and came in, he'd call them in by name.

Last masses I was at were funerals.
Might go tomorrow. Probably not.

but that's good. the cathedral is rich in architectural styles. it is basically a collection of the most precious art in poland

not really impressive art then...

>>67342026
yes, because 123. cliche french cathedral is so much better :^)

also symmetry, mir8?

>>67342278
123 cliche french cathedral honestly looks more imposing that the best Poland has to offer

Just look at that Cracovian cathedral, except for few ornaments it looks quite poor, towers are just straight rectangular or octagonal, no depth, and as a whole it does have quite a simple (poor?) shape. It looks like a barn with few messy towers and chapels here and there.

I don't think any Polish church really impressed me. It's weird that such a Catholic country where the Church held so much power and influence never really built any outstanding temple.

>>67342760
>imposing
art is not about being imposing
