The article doesn't say anything about what's inside the dome. I guess they'd be windowless, but are there usually rooms or other usable space up there? They are big enough. 70.36.142.114 ( talk) 00:55, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
According to the article the oldest onion shaped dome in Western and Central Europe is to be found in Augsburg (1576). In 1520 however the tower of the 'Grote Kerk' in Haarlem was topped with an open onion. Shortly after 1533 the crossing of Antwerp Cathedral already got an onion shaped dome. The tower of Sint-Katharinakerk in Hoogstraten (Belgium) was crowned with an onion in 1546. This shows that in the Low Countries these onion domes were constructed far earlier than 1576.
