✠ Hello everybody, ✠

for my first project on planetminecrat I build the reproduction of a cathedral designed by Viollet the duke in the XIX century.

For him it was the perfect gothic cathedral but It were never build for lack of means.

I use a small picture left by the great architect to be as faithful as possible to the original work.
the picture just show me a front angle so I improvise the inside and the choir of the cathedral.

the inside is fully developed and explorable.
It is not my first cathedral but is clearly the most imposing one!

I use chunky for the exterior render and Kuda's shader for the inside.

special credit to Roi_Louis who did it before me, I did not copy his wonderful works (except the gargoyles xD).

I recommand to use the John Smith or the Conquest texture pack to enjoying it.

If you have any issue with the download link, please use this direct link instead:

You are allowed to use this map for any non-profit project as long as I am explicitly credited as the owner of the build (you can refer to my username or directly send a link to my PMC page).
If you want to use the map or a modified version of the map for a commercial use, just send me a private message, I've always found a way to make it possible.

✠ Important Update ✠ : I have remade entirely the Cathedral with a lot more ambition 8 years after to better suit the newest Minecraft versions ->

Sure, as long as I'm credited and you don't take any monetary profit from it this is totally fine.
But by the way, you should consider using the new one I did, its so much better haha

Les plan originaux de la Basilique de Koekelberg (à Bruxelles) étaient basés sur les plans de la cathédrales parfaite de Viollet le duc. Mais ce projet était lancé par Léopold II, qui meurt en 1909, et quelques années plus tard y a eu la 1ère guerre mondiale, donc les travaux ont été interrompu (seules les fondations étaient faites).
Et après la guerre, y a eu un manque de moyen, donc les autorités ont choisi des matériaux bons marché, ce qui donne la basilique de Koekelberg qu'on connait aujourd'hui, à la place d'une potentielle magnifique église gothique..
