Cathedral wall builders
Stone masons are craftspeople who cut, shape, and build with stone.
The trade includes both rough work—laying foundation stones, building walls—and fine work like carving decorative elements or lettering on monuments.
The stone masons restored the cathedral's medieval facade.
