The Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Truro was built between 1880 and 1910 to a Gothic Revival design by John Loughborough Pearson. It is one of only three cathedrals in the United Kingdom featuring three spires.
Truro was the first Anglican cathedral to be built on a new site in England since Salisbury Cathedral in 1220. It was built on the site of the 16th-century parish church of St Mary the Virgin, a building in the Perpendicular style with a spire 39 m tall. The central tower was finished by 1905 and the building was completed with the opening of the two western towers in 1910.
Pearson's design combines the Early English style with certain French characteristics, chiefly spires and rose windows.
References:Kakesbeck is one of the largest medieval fortifications in Münsterland and the oldest castle in Lüdinghausen. The imposingly grown complex originated in 1120 as a motte, a small hilltop tower castle. After numerous changes of ownership, the castle was extended onto two islands, but it was not until the 14th century that it underwent significant alterations and extensions under the von Oer family. The estate experienced its heyday in the middle of the 18th century, when it covered an area of almost one square kilometre and consisted of five further outer castles in addition to the core castle, which were secured by ramparts and moats.
The well-maintained condition of the castle today is thanks to the late Wilfried Grewing, the former lord of the castle. The foundation named after him has been particularly committed to preserving the property since 2020.
