A flying buttress is an architectural feature that extends from the outer wall of a building, typically a church or cathedral, to support the structure and distribute its weight. This design consists of a curved or angled beam that connects to a vertical support, allowing for higher walls and larger windows. Flying buttresses are commonly seen in Gothic architecture, where they help create a sense of height and openness. They not only provide structural stability but also add visual interest to the exterior of the building, enhancing its overall beauty and grandeur.
