The Strasbourg astronomical clock is located in the Cathédrale Notre-Dame of Strasbourg, Alsace, France. It is the third clock on that spot and dates from the time of the first French possession of the city (1681-1870). The first clock had been built in the 14th century, the second in the 16th century, when Strasbourg was a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire.

Flying Buttresses were introduced in the Gothic era. This is a buttress slanting from a separate pier, typically forming an arch with the wall it supports. Buttresses were often finely designed and extremely decorative.

It is the pointed arch that most clearly makes Gothic building look different from Roman and Romanesque work. The pointed arch lead to the complex system of vaulting or vaulted ceilings.

The Gothic style grew out of Romanesque around 1135. It was first seen in the church of Saint-Denis near Paris, France. Since the first Gothic appearance was in a church, the Gothic style formed much of the churches, cathedrals, and castles that were in Europe at the time. Churches became important architectural statements of power and wealth. Many towns were built around the church, because it supported the people and provided them with everything they needed.
