A particularly beautiful church, but the reputation is far from Notre Dame Paris. Later, I heard from the tour guide that this steel church was a bit unbelievable. It was very beautiful. The windows and glass inside were really beautiful.

The green spherical construction site is the symbol of the whole church and can be seen from a slightly higher point in Paris. The church is also a large area, outside is a large square, very busy on weekdays, there are many square performances, wonderful to attract many tourists to stop and watch.

St. Augustine's Cathedral in Paris was the first church to be cast with iron. It can be said that it was the earliest steel structure building. But because people's aesthetics still remained in the classical period, they could not accept the bare cast iron, so even the steel structure was covered with a stone coat. Generally speaking, the church was very beautiful and stable.

Augustine Cathedral, the earliest church in Paris built with iron, is not special in appearance. When you enter the cathedral, you can see the construction of cast iron supporting the top of the cathedral. It originated from the fact that the technology of iron had just been paid attention to. At that time, people's aesthetic still stayed in the classical period and could not accept the bare cast iron. So even if it was made of steel, it had to be covered with a layer of stone. Generally speaking, this church is of the stable type.
