arched windows
Gothic architectural features
Arched windows have curved tops rather than flat ones, typically in a semicircular or pointed shape.
The design appears in Romanesque, Gothic, and Mediterranean architecture, where arches distribute structural weight while admitting light.
The old church featured tall arched windows with stained glass.
