Neo-gothic architecture is a broad term for an architecture style of the Gothic revival that began in mid-18th century in England. It spread in Europe in the 1830s and later in America. In theory, the style lasted until the Art Deco movement of the 1930s, but in practice architectural design based on classical forms continues to the present day.
