The church steeple has been a fixture on the horizon for centuries. It is man's attempt to draw our attention heavenward. I have not studied the history of church architecture so I don't know when steeples first appeared.
But the tradition of the form that is all throughout Europe certainly made it's way to the New World. This one is in New Orleans, Louisiana.
