Gothic Buildings



Gothic Buildings, or Gothic Architecture, remains prevalent in many parts of the world. Although Gothic fashion originated in the 80s, Gothic buildings and architecture has been around for centuries. Gothic style buildings can be found in all parts of the world. Although Gothic style buildings or gothic architecture buildings have been around for centuries they did not refer to them as Gothic buildings. The term Gothic did not originate until the 19th century.

Although most of the Gothic Buildings can be found in Europe and South America, you can still find some in places like New England; typically the Gothic style buildings you see here are the Old Catholic churches, from large Gothic cathedrals to smaller Gothic churches. It is very rare to find Gothic style buildings such as homes in the US. You would have a much easier time finding Gothic style buildings in places like France, and old parts of the UK.

Gothic buildings such as homes can be particularly cold in winters without adequate heating. Most of these Gothic homes are built out of stones, or bricks. If the interiors do not have a modern insulation setup they can hold the cold in for much longer periods of time. The Gothic bricks or stones remain cold for some time.

Other Gothic Architecture besides Gothic styles homes or Gothic Cathedrals can be quit hard to find as well. Typically most of the Gothic architecture falls under medieval buildings, or castles. Again most of this Gothic architecture can be found in Europe, such as UK, Scotland, France, and many other parts of Euro areas. Many of these castles also have smaller Gothic buildings such as out houses for the help, or maids, gardeners etc.

Please see many of our other sections for Gothic style building pictures, as well as other Gothic architecture.
