Gimme Gothic
I know all my students climbed the dome of St. Peter's and to the top of the Duomo in Florence, but I prefer my rooftop experiences pointy and Gothic.
I'm standing on the flattish roof ridge of the Duomo in Milan - all marble, all the time.

One of my favourite descriptions of the Duomo in Milan stated that it had enough statues (several thousand?) to populate a small German Duchy.

I imagine they're easier to climb as well.
