Coutances Cathedral

Coutances Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Coutances) is a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral in the town of Coutances, Normandy, France. It is the seat of the Bishop of Coutances and Avranches, previously the Bishops of Coutances. Standing 80 metres (295 ft) tall it dominates the town and can be seen from as far away as Jersey. It is a classic example of the Gothic style of Normandy in its use of long straight vertical lines.
