<p dir="ltr">> I wouldn't tag this building=cathedral, even building=church is a bit much.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I agree "building=*" is better used to describe form (not function).<br>
Looking at this building in photography or real life I will not call it "probably a cathedral", based on style, shape, size and look.<br>
So no building=cathedral for me neither.</p>

Function (not form) might be better defined with an administrative-related set of tags, such as discussed here:<br>

admin_level=*</p>
<p dir="ltr">> size is not everything, surely you have noticed this is from the nineth century?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Well, the Wikipedia page reads: built as a royal chapel, not built as a cathedral. It was not considered a cathedral then.</p><p dir="ltr"><br></p><p>-- althio<br></p>
