Wikipedia notes that Gothic architecture "is particularly associated with church architecture, but it is also the architecture of many castles, palaces, town halls, guildhalls, universities and houses," spanning several building types under one shared family look. This dimension lets a visitor see the larger movement a single style belongs to.
