The study of the structure of structures of Gothic and Neo-Gothic styles makes it possible to understand the possibilities of creating fractal elements of these unique buildings. The methods of determining the fractal dimension for an object both on a plane and in space are shown. The characteristic elements of the frame structures of Gothic architecture are listed. The differences between the structures built by architects in Russia and the buildings of Western architecture in Europe are shown. The article examines examples of the harmonious integration of Gothic architecture buildings into modern urban space. The article discusses methods for calculating the fractal dimension of objects of Gothic architecture with a high degree of fractality.
