  The designers gave so much detail even though they knew that they would not live to see the completed cathedral.

  There was nothing more breathtaking than visiting Strasbourg and happening upon the facade of the cathedral.

  wonderful documentation! Thank you very much. But I have one correction to make: when Freiburg (Breisgau) was mentioned you did not show the right picture of this city. Please google Freiburg im Breisgau and see the cathedral. It's spire is called: the most beautiful helmet of christiandome and you will understand why. The spire of Strasbourg is ingenious, but the spire of Freiburg is just beautiful.

  What an amazing Cathedral, we don't hear much about the Strasbourg Cathedral in the US. Truly a monument the Strasbourg people who built it and their Christian faith.

  Seems like the Strasbourg Cathedral has always been overshadowed by Notre Dame de Paris and the Cologne Cathedral.<br>To my shame, I had never even heard of the Strasbourg Cathedral untill I started watching this documentary.<br><br>Thank you.

  If anyone&apos;s very much into such aspects from architecture to construction materials to spirituality and symbolism, I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt&apos;s videos series, especially the ones about Medieval France and England

  Two handsful of thumbs up for a great video.....but....<br>I have a small complaint. It was annoying to have to read the captioning to know what was being said. There were times I wanted to see the details of the building. Had to read and then rewind to see. Please just narrate it all in English. Still, a fantastic video.

  People could do awesome things with just pen, paper and their own minds.

  I &nbsp;found out about Strousbourg Cathedral about three years ago right here on YouTube, a different one than this one, but a documentary and it is ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY STUNNING!

  the chainage system.. at 23: 35 &nbsp;of putting metals to keep the stones tied/chained together is mind boggling.
