Christianity Influences Gothic Architecture Christianity Influences Prior churches very dark inside, thick heavy walls and low ceilings Not many windows Then came Christianity influences and inspiration During the Middle Ages, the Church was a major part of everyday life. The Church served to give people spiritual guidance and it served as their government as well. Gothic architecture - a style of architecture developed in northern France that spread throughout Europe between the 12th and 16th centuries; characterized by slender vertical piers and counterbalancing buttresses and by vaulting and pointed arches

Gothic Architecture Built Saint Denis in Paris, France In Western Europe (England, France, Germany & Spain) 1100’s France Abbot Suger Visionary – not an architect God acts like fire giving warmth and light to the human body. Just as fire changes the materials it burns, God transforms the human spirit. As flames reach toward the heavens, God carries the human spirit to heaven. Wanted to build a church to express his feelings toward God and allow people the same feeling to worship. Built Saint Denis in Paris, France
