Dear Albania, 

Where, in Albania?

Request for Question Clarification by tutuzdad-ga on 09 Sep 2003 07:14 PDT
Are you looking for structures that are designed that way or those
that sustained damage for one reason or other? Also, does location
matter?

Korce, Albania is where my family is from

I am looking for names and photos of existing cathedrals in ruin,
specifically if they have their roofs off.  My husband is a sculptor
buidling steel structures with the theme of "cathedral's and his
impetus is the cathedral at San Galgano, Italy

Hello there

We can start off with the Cathedral at San Galgano itself.  I am also
including abbeys since an Abbot or Abbeys of an order held the same
episcopal rank as a bishop and an abbey was the place for their
cathedra (throne).
