No, Milan Cathedral is not the biggest cathedral on earth. The title of the world's largest cathedral generally goes to the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine in New York City, United States, which is about twice the size of Milan Cathedral in both length and height.

Spires are commonly found in Gothic architecture, which emerged in the 12th century and flourished until the 16th century. Characterized by verticality and light-filled interiors, Gothic cathedrals often feature pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses, with spires serving both aesthetic and symbolic purposes. Notable examples include the spires of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris and Chartres Cathedral.
