Cathedrals And Churches of Europe

An unsurpassable, visual tour of the greatest pilgrimage sites of Europe, from North to South; East to West.

To step inside a Gothic cathedral is to step inside the visual essence of the Christian faith—a world filled with vaulted ceilings that direct the visitor's gaze toward heaven, stone sculptures that bring to life both the blessings of salvation and the horrors of damnation, and stained glass windows that illustrate powerful religious stories in dazzling bursts of color.

The great churches of Christianity represent some of the world’s most stunning masterpieces of architecture and art.

Britain's Great Cathedrals. A six part documentary series that looks at the architecture and tells the stories and characters behind six of Britain's Cathedrals. Sir Tony Robinson visits Britain's great cathedrals, considered some of the most magnificent in the world, to investigate their turbulent history and the treasures that they house. Dominating the landscape for centuries, ancient cathedrals and abbeys reflect Britain's history through their architectural grandeur-stories of its kings and queens and the religious and social changes brought about by the English Reformation, as well as many other tales of intrigue, love, faith and conviction.
