Back The problems you are facing are at least the following
Glass material is 0% transparent and 100% glow. Only light you propably have in the scene is outside the cathedral and your camera is closed within the building. No light enters the building, so you'll have a completely black image.
To remedy this, select glass material from properties tray/ shaders tab and double click it to enter texture room. Change glow to 100% change color to very dark grey (almost black), change transparency to 92%, shininess to 80%, highlight to 65%, reflection to 15% and refraction to 30%.
Go to render tab and tick light through transparency, indirect lighting and skylight. Change interpolation precision to about 40%.
To render that scene with hdri image based lighting, you need also to insert hdr map to background in assembly room. Press ctrl+shift+t to go to scene properties. Select background/ hdri and enter your hdr map there.
hit ctrl+r to render.
Add volumetric fog and increase the skylight intensity as necessary.
