There has been a church in the pretty Cambridgeshire village of Bythorn since the 12th century, but this building dates mainly from the 13th and 14th centuries.
Like most English parish churches, there have been numerous alterations and additions over the centuries. The nave was probably rebuilt towards the end of the 13th century, when a north aisle was added, but, notwithstanding the presence of a 13th-century piscina, it is doubtful whether the chancel was rebuilt at this time. Early in the next century a south aisle was added, and about 1345 the chancel was rebuilt and widened to the south, and the north aisle rebuilt. The clearstory was built in the 15th century, and the north chapel early in the 16th century.

The present Church of Scotland local Parish in Kinross dates from 1832 and is designated a Category 'B' Listed Building of Perpendicular Gothic style with the added Clock Tower.
It was designed by Architect George Angus (1792-1844) , who has left his mark with other churches and municipal buildings throughout Scotland.
The Organ in the white church in Düsseldorf, that we visited last year as well. At that time, the Rubens-painting hung above the altar.
This is the opposite site, above the entrance. A wonderful organ, set at a stunning place.
(Sorry, the Rubens wasn't a Renoir... big mistake!)
Because of the width and not wanting to flash (and not using a tripod), I had to adjust the levels and the colour somewhat, and I pulled the picture straight with the 'perspective' tool in PS.
Every time I see it, it looks like a skull to me. Very weird!

In many ways this is typical of the multitude of medieval parish churches dotted across the English countryside. There has been a church in the pretty west Cambridgeshire village of Bythorn since the 12th century, but this Grade II*-listed building dates mainly from the 13th and 14th centuries. It was not unusual for early church spires to collapse and require rebuilding, but in fact the spire of this church was removed and capped in the 1950s.
Baclayon, March 2024
Severely damaged during an earthquake in 1993, the building was reconstructed from 2014-2018.

The Igreja de Santa Luzia in Lisbon’s Alfama district is a gem of understated elegance, blending whitewashed stone with a striking bell tower that rises against the clear Portuguese sky. Located beside the popular Miradouro de Santa Luzia, the church is a beloved landmark, offering both quiet refuge and some of the city’s most iconic views. Its simple design reflects Lisbon’s layered architectural history, with Romanesque and later Baroque influences visible in the structure. Just beyond, Alfama’s colorful houses and steep cobbled streets create a lively backdrop, reminding visitors why this area remains one of Lisbon’s most enduringly photogenic neighborhoods.
