The Los Angeles Cathedral is a place to start. But I've traveled a lot in Germany, Austria, and Poland. The era they built those buildings in was impoverished in terms of the average man.

Those buildings are indication that someone had entirely too much money.

Have you ever seen the gold/jewelry room at the Koln (Cologne) Cathedral?

Some about gold robes that gives me the willies, too.
