I really want to know about polyhedra in/on churches.
It is very common in Hungary that the peak of the tower of protestant
church buildings (mainly Calvinist, but sometimes Lutheran as
well) is decorated with a star polyhedron symbolizing the star
of Bethlehem (or a mace or both). I would like to know whether
there is something similar in other countries.
