Mindmap-Galerie The architectural art of medieval England
The architectural art of medieval England was represented by Norman and Gothic styles. Norman architecture featured fortified castles with heavy stone walls and round towers. Gothic architecture, on the other hand, was characterized by lighter, taller structures with pointed arches and flying buttresses. Churches and abbeys boasted magnificent cathedrals and elaborate stained glass windows. Castle design balanced defensive needs with living and farming spaces. These architectural styles had a profound impact on later architectural trends and have become important historical heritage in England.
