Winchester Cathedral UK (Norman Gothic, 1079-1093)
At the beginning of the s. XX the cathedral was in unfortunate conditions, the structure was submerged more than 6 m deep in the mud. The conditioning work began in 1905 and for this it was necessary for a diver to descend to the foundations to place the concrete and cement as quickly as possible. The diver was William Walker, who single-handedly accomplished the feat. He finished in 1911. He became the hero diver who had saved the cathedral.

The Munich Residenz was the seat of the government and official residence of the Wittelsbach dynasty between 1508 and 1918. It has an area of 20,000 m2, being the largest urban palace in the country. Under the government of Albert V (1550-1579), the so-called Antiquariu was built, one of the most splendid rooms in the palace. This Renaissance space was initially conceived to house the collection of busts of the Duke. A kind of private museum.
