Answer:

Gothic architecture (Latin: francigenum opus) is a style that flourished in Europe during the High and Late Middle Ages. It evolved from Romanesque architecture and was succeeded by Renaissance architecture. Originating in 12th-century France, it was widely used, especially for cathedrals and churches, until the 16th century. The architects of Gothic Cathedrals used the rib vault, flying buttress, and pointed Gothic arch which, combined together, made possible very tall structures and maximum light. They also employed stained glass windows on a large scale, which filled the interiors with colored light, and they surrounded the portals with sculptural decoration. [1] Some of these features were also adapted to palaces and other public buildings of Gothic secular and domestic architecture. Gothic architects also redesigned the castle on new principles. often adding a high central keep or tower.
