Gorgeous structure. Most impressed by the exterior sculptures. Inside is nice as well. Must see if you go there (and it can likely be the reason you go there!)

First of all buy a flash card for your GPS. You will need a GPS if you are driving in Germany/France. Do not rent one it is not worth. This Cathedral is simply gorgeous.

We've seen many European cathedrals -- this one is cavernous and filled with beautiful leaded windows. Photos are allowed.

You must try to time your visit to see the clock. The movie beforehand is in French, German and English and gives you a close up of what will happen. If you don't see the movie you may think that the clock is overrated as it is a little slow. getting the history of it makes all the difference.

In the old city centre. It is a huge cathedral with wonderful spires but is a little difficult to currently fully appreciate because of the construction to upgrade it and the local area.

The detailing of this grand cathedral's facade is unbelievably delicate and intricate! The astronomical clock inside is another wonder to behold and the stained glass windows rival those in St. Chapelle, Paris. But the most striking structure was the hauntingly carved stone scene of Christ's crucifixion.

One of Europe's magnificent churches. A highlight of this historic city. When it was completed in the mid 17th century, this sandstone Gothic giant was the tallest building in the world and remained so for two and a half centuries. It still dominates the Strasbourg skyline and can be seen for miles around.
