Romanesque Revival

The Romanesque Revival, also known as Romanesque Revival Architecture, is a style that emerged in the 19th century, inspired by the Romanesque architectural tradition of medieval Europe. Characterized by sturdy stone construction, rounded arches, large towers, and decorative masonry, it sought to evoke a sense of history and grandeur. This architectural movement often appeared in churches, public buildings, and universities, representing a reaction against the elegance of Gothic Revival and Classical styles. It aimed to create designs that felt monumental and enduring, connecting modern constructions to the past through its robust and historical aesthetic.
