Comment

The edifice is striking for the contrast between its austere military fortress exterior and the pictorial and sculptural richness of its interior. An unrivalled monument, it asserts its power through a style typical of south-western France: Southern Gothic. Its unique style is reinforced by its interior decoration. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cath%C3%A9drale_Sainte-C%C3%A9cile_d%27Albi
