At the end of the medieval period, enthusiasm and financing for the build dried up and the cathedral was left unfinished for about 250 years. There was a medieval wooden crane on one of the incomplete towers which survived up until the 1850s, it can be seen on photos from that period

It was an experience; you can see the style change from the oldest portion (the apse) to the newest portion (the towers).
