The tower has a pointed roof and a cross on top. The drawing is done in pencil and has some writing on it, but it's hard to read. The style of the drawing is detailed and realistic, with lots of lines and shading to create depth and texture. If you like this style of drawing, you might want to check out the Romanticism movement, which emphasized emotion and imagination in art.
