Story · St. Mary's Cathedral

You're standing at the New Cathedral of Linz, also called the Mariendom. Start by looking up at that tower. It's nearly 135 meters tall, and that 'nearly' is the interesting part. A taller spire was planned, but in old Austria-Hungary no building was allowed to rise above the south tower of St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. So Linz politely stopped two meters short.
