The influence of Albi Cathedral: the use of historic precedent in nineteenth and twentieth century church design
In the period 1850s-1950s, British church building was strongly influenced by the mediaeval ecclesiastical architecture of southern France/northern Spain, in particular, Albi Cathedral. Albi, and churches in Toulouse and Gerona, influenced British church building in various different ways (which involved structure, form, and materials), but there was almost no attempt to reproduce their appearance. The wide-naved, internal buttress/aisle passage church was the result. This influence was at its highest during the later Victorian period - when there was a search for a new kind of church, appropriate for present circumstances - and in twentieth century cathedral design.
