Bruges, Brussels. High level view (from Belfort) of Holy Saviour Cathedral, also known as San Salvator's Cathedral, or Sint-Salvatorskathedraal. In the 1830s and 1840s the medieval church enlarged by English architect Robert Chantrell, with a higher tower, in order to make it taller than that of the Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk. The oldest surviving part, dated from the 12th century, formed the base of the mighty tower. Chantry chapels form semi-circular ambulatory at east end.
