    I would not quite call it ugly, but the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral, which I visited in 2008, looks like a museum rather than a normal cathedral:

    Saint Jean Baptiste (Armenian cathedral in Paris).



    I like cathedrals for their esthetic in general even if im agnostic but this one looks like the entrance of a Devil May Cry level i played when i was 16. Bet there is a red orb hidden on the second floor balcony.

    Actually not a cathedral, but just a church (yes, thats a church). I guess thats what you're talking about:

    While not pretty in any sense of the word , I personally find anything Baroque or Roccoco way worse. Im a big Gothic fan though.

    A classic (pagan) greek temple. I like it.

    Yeah it looks like a haunted house, but It's nice.

    Ciudad Real cathedral looks like the gate to hell more then a cathedral.
