It was the highest building constructed during the Middle Ages and is an architectural masterpiece. Built over hundreds of years, between 1176 – 1439, Strasbourg Cathedral is radically different from any other Cathedral. It was built using new technologies and according to principles never tested before. For the first time, the researchers were able to trace in 3D the incredible history of this project. They reveal how the builders were able to defy the laws of physics to build higher and higher and explain the importance of iron in this stone cathedral.
Welcome to Strasbourg Cathedral: an exceptional project that lasted 400 years and mobilized the best architects of the Middle Ages. This is the latest episode in ‘Extreme Constructions’ series.
This documentary was produced by Eclectic and directed by Lionel Langdale. It was first released in 2019.

My family left there in 1833 to sail to America. Why?
What about notre dame ?
SLAVS-Serbs built it~ Seen on Nikola TESLA's Chronoscope, the Inventor of our Modern World. The French are not healthy & tall enough to have done it, they are weak physically> SERBS-Slavs the christianized Original Hebrews & see Daniel 12:7 "the HOLY People" of old. WE BUILT as well the Roman Coliseum with Greek-Spartan slaves, we built the Basilica of St. Peter's later 500-600 AD / CE, and again all the Cathedrals of Western Europe, NOTRE DAME, SACRE-COEUR, the Cathedral of St. Denis in Paris, as well the Cathedral of Koln-Cologne in Germany…and many of their Palaces. THEY appropriately erased all the Records & then they probably killed the workers returning to our SLAVIC-Christian Orthodox domains, where we settled, after the destruction of Old Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 AD/CE, before branching out to other territories as in Poland (initially Christian Orthodox before Talmudist Catholics, changed their religion to "Catholic" which is a Talmudist anti-Biblical "religion"), I also believe the same occurred with the CzechoSlovaks). Praise the LORD God, ELOHIM (plural gods) The Holy Trinity, composed of The Father, the Son + Goddess Holy Spirit…Isaiah 48:16 in true words of ancient hebrew "SHE" for the (Holy) SPIRIT. Jesus even said "I have many things to reveal to you but you cannot receive it now").
I know that the St Michel tower in Bordeaux was damaged by lightning many times. Why wasn’t the Strasbourg Cathedral damaged by lightning prior to the invention of the lightning rod?
Complimenti a tutti voi…
Great video….
Absolutely incredible and a must see world monument. The city of Strasbourg itself that surrounds the cathedral is a cultural, architectural and engineering masterpiece as well.
I can't stand the Cathedrals that are missing a tower/spire. Of coarse it's still amazing, but damn. Get that thing balanced back out! Or the ones that have mismatching towers/spires. Like Chartres is absolutely amazing, but such an eyesore!
Amazing, built as a power source. Lots of lies in this documentary still a nice watch.
44:22 Jean Hültz .. j'imagine pas ce qu'il devait prendre à l'école avec un tel nom mdr
