A gothic giant

Strasbourg Cathedral is an absolute stunner – towering over the city with its intricate Gothic detail and that incredible 142m spire (once the tallest building in the world!). The pink sandstone gives it a unique glow, especially at sunset. Inside, the astronomical clock is a real showstopper. It’s one of those places where you just stop and stare – a mix of history, craftsmanship, and pure architectural wow. Definitely a must-visit if you're in Alsace! #westerneurope #cathedral #france
