The building interior is lit by one gigantic hole in the ceiling - and on a sunny summer's day, like this one was, that gives an incredible amount of light.
The original Pantheon was built by Marcus Agrippa in 27 B.C. - the inscription on the front outside says: M.AGRIPPA.L.F.COS.TERTIUM.FECIT which means 'Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, who has been consul three times, built this'. Modern archaeological research has shown that the Pantheon now standing here is not the one Agrippa built - instead it was erected sometime after 110 A.D. after the original had been destroyed by fire in 80 A.D. (it was first rebuilt by Domitian after the fire, but that one also burned down). Earlier historians thought this done by Hadrian, but new research could indicate it was actually done already by Trajan, and his architect Apollodorus of Damascus, and then finished by Hadrian. The actual function of the building in ancient times is not known.
In 609 the Pantheon was consecrated to be a church by Pope Boniface IV, and it still is a church, called Sancta Maria ad Martyres (now Santa Maria dei Martiri, and informally known as Santa Maria Rotonda). Since the Renaissance it has been used as a burial place and here two of Italy's kings are buried: Vittorio Emanuele II and Umberto I.
St. John's Church.
Woverley's Church of England and parish church is dedicated to St. John. It is claimed as a tradition that there has been a church or chapel on the site since Anglo-Saxon times. The first documented evidence of a church was the mention of a parish priest in the village in the Domesday Book (1086). A church on the site of the current parish church site has been in deanery of Kidderminster since the 13th Century. The current building was consecrated on 20 September 1772, and belongs to the Church of England.

St Josephs Catholic Church, Pauatahanui, Wellington, New Zealand. Consecrated on Sunday April 28th 1878, St Josephs was the second catholic church built in the greater Wellington region and is the oldest still in use today. Built in a Gothic style (seating up to 100) from native Matai and Rimu timber milled locally. At the time the church served a small isolated farming district. Today St Josephs is listed as a Historic Place Category 1 building being of outstanding historical or cultural significance.
After I did consecrate myself more to the big range of the landscapes, I want to step a bit closer now. This here is a tiny section of a large corn field. In the middle of a field of barley (more next to the edge, because I cant fly) is standing an unblenching oat plant.
As a photographer I'm often looking for the outsiders. The tree, standing alone in the middle of the field or the flower what is looking so different than the others around it. Maybe it is because I am one by myself. Compared with this here, most of them can be found much more easily. For that photo, luck was responsible in the most part.
Nachdem ich mich in den letzten Tagen mehr der Weite der Landschaften gewidmet habe, möchte ich nun wieder einmal etwas näher treten. Dies ist eine winziger Ausschnitt aus einem großen Getreidefeld. Mitten in einem Meer aus Gerste (eher mehr am Rand davon, ich kann ja nicht fliegen) steht da völlig unerschrocken eine Haferpflanze.
Als Fotograf bin ich häufig auf der Suche nach dem Aussenseiter. Dem Baum, der allein auf dem Feld steht oder der Blüte, die so ganz anders aussieht als alle um ihn herum. Wahrscheinlich, weil ich selbst einer bin. Im Gegensatz zu dem hier sind die meisten deutlich leichter zu finden. Für dieses Bild war größtenteils das Glück verantwortlich.

Completed in 1462, and consecrated by Donatus O’Connor-Sligo, a Dominican monk, and member of a noble family which gave more than one bishop to the See of Killala, it is told, Moyne was to rise to prominence within Irish Franciscan circles, with Provincial Chapters of the order being held there on several occasions between 1464 and 1550. At its zenith the monastery boasted a valuable library, infirmary, two mills for grinding corn, excellent pasturage, pools for fish, a water-mill and a never-failing spring of wholesome water. The community including priests, professors, students and lay-brothers, would have numbered upwards of 50.
According to a local legend reminiscent of the selection of the site of the church of ‘Sancta Maria ad Nives’ in Rome, the monks had their choice of all of the lands owned by their benefactor, and having examined several likely sites, O Donoghue, the Provincial, in the company of a Father Chilvart, settled on Moyne (Maighin translated as a small plain), apparently with the help of either a little robin or wren. The little robin was held in high regard by the Irish as this bird was said to have got its red breast through its efforts to stanch the blood on the brow of the crucified Christ. Conversely, the wren is a maligned bird as it was regarded as promiscuous, which would not have endeared it to the more puritanical of Christian preachers. Apparently the upright tail of the wren was viewed as sexual imagery, as was the black chafer, which raises its tail when threatened. The chafer (known in Irish as daradaol or deargadaol ) also had an anti-Christian representation as it was believed that it informed on Christ, thereby leading to His arrest.
In any case, the intervention of the robin was taken as a divine gesture, after which the Provincial exclaimed: ‘God has shown us and that is the site of our monastery,’ and further referred to the location as:
The abbey stands on the site of an earlier oratory attributed to St. Muinchin/Mucna, a local folk-saint. He is reputed to have been a disciple of St. Patrick’s who ruled a church which is called Maighin; that he lived until about 520AD and that his birthday was celebrated at Moyne on the 4 March.
The first church in Lusowo in this place was built in 1244. According to the oldest documents, it was a wooden church. A historic event was the establishment of a parish in Lusowo on July 15, 1288. Over the years, the wooden church has been damaged. The new temple was consecrated in 1499. It has undergone several renovations. The present appearance of the church dates from 1913 - 1916. The Gothic chancel with a stellar vault and a rood arch has remained from the old 15th century church. It is the chapel of the new church dedicated to St. Jadwiga and St. James the Apostle.

Pierwszy kościół w Lusowie w tym miejscu wybudowano w 1244 roku. Jak podają najdawniejsze dokumenty był to drewniany kościół. Wydarzeniem historycznym było utworzenie w Lusowie parafii w dniu 15 lipca 1288 roku. Z biegiem lat drewniany kościół uległ zniszczeniu. Nową świątynię konsekrowano w 1499 roku. Ulegała ona kilkakrotnym renowacjom. Obecny wygląd kościoła pochodzi z roku 1913 - 1916. Ze starego XV wiecznego kościoła pozostało gotyckie prezbiterium z gwiaździstym sklepieniem i łukiem tęczowym. Stanowi ono kaplicę nowej świątyni pod wezwaniem św. Jadwigi i św. Jakuba Apostoła.
View into the cupola of the cathedral of Salzburg, Austria. After the romanic precursor was teared down in 1614 the new building was founded. The cupola probably was inspired by Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome (1585). The cathedral is consecrated St. Rupert and Virgil.
Blick in den Kuppelbau des Domes zu Salzburg. Nachdem der romanische Vorgängerbau abgerissen wurde, erfolgte die Grundsteinlegung des Neubaus 1614. Die Kuppel ist wahrscheinlich inspiriert worden von Santa Maria Maggiore, der Papstbasilika in Rom (1585). Der Kirchenbau ist den Heiligen Rupert und Virgil geweiht.
IN EXPLORE 29-11-2022 St Matthew's Church was consecrated in 1837 to be the parish church for the new parish of Richhill. The building itself was repurposed from its prior existence as the market house for the village, which had been built in 1752.

The entrance (which is normally closed - you enter the cathedral from a side door). I don't know the technical term here, but the blue circle thing, at the door, is actually a reflection of light from the (very) bright window above that door.
Interior from the cathedral Notre Dame in Bayeux. It was originally in Romanesque style but later rebuilt in Gothic style. The cathedral was consecrated in 1077 in the presence of William the Conqueror (who was also the Duke of Normandy) - but the build had started already around 1040. It was mostly finished in the 15th century.
Macugnaga bell tower (consecrated in 1717, when tourism was not yet developed ) in early spring after a heavy vernal snowfall.
The birth of tourism in Macugnaga traditionally coincides with the visit of the Genevan naturalist De Saussure, who
arrived in the village in 1789, was hosted in the tavern of Antonio Maria del Prato (who thus becomes the first hotelier of Macugnaga), then climbed to the Pedriola and to the smaller peak of Pizzo Bianco.
He will be followed by numerous travelers, mostly English, who will introduce Macugnaga and Monte Rosa with their stories and their engravings.

The Cathedral of the Transfiguration is a Catholic Byzantine house of worship named in honour of the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ. The land on which the Cathedral stands was donated by the late Stephen Roman which "he built as a beacon of religious freedom". The Cathedral was modeled on a church in Novy Ruskov, the Slovak village where Mr. Roman was raised. Its cornerstone and altar stone were blessed by Pope John Paul II during his 1984 visit to Canada, marking this the first time a Roman Pontiff consecrated a church in North America.

The Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque originally known as Saint Nicholas's Cathedral and later as the Ayasofya (Saint Sophia) Mosque of Magusa, is the largest medieval building in Famagusta, Northern Cyprus. Built between 1298 and c. 1400, it was consecrated as a Catholic cathedral in 1328. The cathedral was converted into a mosque after the Ottoman Empire captured Famagusta in 1571 and it remains a mosque to this day.

St. Andrew's (German: St. Andreas) is a 10th-century Romanesque church located in the old town of Cologne, Germany. It is one of twelve churches built in Cologne in that period. Archbishop Gero consecrated the church in 974, dedicating it to St. Andrew, although an earlier church at the site was dedicated to St. Matthew. In the 12th century, the church was rebuilt in the Romanesque style, and was probably completed after the great fire of Cologne in 1220. In the crypt of the church lies a Roman sarcophagus from the 3rd century, which holds the remains of the 13th-century theologian and natural philosopher St. Albertus Magnus. Since 1947, the Dominican Order has ministered to the church.

With the battles finally over, work on temple construction began during the lunar month of February 1817. But the cost of construction was high and proper materials scarce. The Five Lords intervened again, visiting Madame Guo Feng of nearby Madou Village in a dream. Awaking, she took her palanquin to Nankunshen to deliver a personal donation of one thousand liang in silver – enough to keep work on the temple moving forward.
After five years and four months, work on the new temple was finished in 1822. It was at this time that the new home of the Five Lords was officially consecrated as ‘Nankunshen Daitian’ Temple. The original structure, built with the altars of the Five Lords at its center, was approached through a series of three main gates. An active center of worship for the next four decades, the temple gradually fell into disrepair. In 1864, Mssrs. Wu Kang, Hong Hu-pan and Tu Chian, three pious individuals from Keliao Village, together contributed 10,000 yuan for restoration work. In 1872, a new altar – ‘Ching Shan Temple’ - was added at the back, dedicated to the Guanyin Goddess to remember her role in mediating the dispute between the Five Lords and the child spirit.

Catedral de Santa María de Mediavilla - Teruel
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catedral_de_Teruel
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
La catedral de Santa María de Mediavilla de Teruel es una de las construcciones más características del mudéjar en España, y una de las escasas catedrales españolas, junto con la de Tarazona, construidas en este estilo.
Actualmente, la catedral está considerada como BIC (Bien de Interés Cultural). Fue declarada Monumento histórico-artístico perteneciente al Tesoro Artístico Nacional mediante decreto de 3 de junio de 1931.
La torre, la techumbre y el cimborrio son Patrimonio de la Humanidad desde 1986
La Catedral de Teruel tiene su origen en la iglesia de Santa María de Mediavilla, que comenzó a edificarse en estilo románico en 1171 y se concluyó con la erección de la torre mudéjar en 1257. En la segunda mitad del siglo XIII, el alarife morisco Juzaff, reestructura la antigua obra románica y dota al edificio de tres naves mudéjares de mampostería y ladrillo, que mejoran y elevan la estructura románica del siglo XII.
En el mismo estilo gótico-mudéjar, ya en el siglo XIV se sustituyeron los ábsides románicos por otros, como se puede apreciar en la cabecera de la capilla mayor. Se redujo con ello a la mitad el número de soportes, lo que dio una mayor luminosidad y espaciosidad a las naves de arcos apuntados. También los muros fueron recrecidos. En 1423, ya con el aspecto mudéjar con que, en lo fundamental, conocemos el templo actualmente, el pontífice aragonés Benedicto XIII, el llamado «Papa Luna» la elevó al rango de Colegiata.
Ya en estilo plateresco-mudéjar, fue construido en 1538 el cimborrio de la nave central, obra de Martín de Montalbán. Fue edificado de planta octogonal sobre trompas y presenta en su exterior ventanas ajimezadas con decoraciones platerescas. Más tarde, en 1587, con la creación de la diócesis de Teruel, fue promovida a Catedral y consagrada como tal. Por último en 1909 se aborda la edificación de la fachada en estilo neomudéjar, obra de Pablo Monguió.

Teruel Cathedral

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Teruel Cathedral or Catedral de Santa María de Mediavilla de Teruel is a Roman Catholic church in Teruel (Province of Teruel, Aragon, Spain). Dedicated to St. Mary, it is a notable example of Mudéjar architecture. Together with other churches in the town and in the province of Zaragoza, it has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986.
The Cathedral of Teruel has its origins in the church of Santa María de Mediavilla, upon which work started in Romanesque style in 1171 and ended with the erection of the Mudéjar tower in 1257. In the second half of the 13th century, the Morisco alarife Juzaff restructured the old Romanesque work and endowed the building with three Mudéjar naves of masonry and brick.
The Romanesque apses were replaced in the same Gothic-Mudéjar style as early as the 14th century, as can be seen in the head of the major chapel. The number of supports was reduced by half, leading to greater luminosity and spaciousness in the pointed arch naves. Additionally, the walls were enlarged. In 1423, the Aragonese pontiff Antipope Benedict XIII, the so-called "Pope Luna," raised it to the rank of a collegiate church. The Mudéjar aspect has changed little since then.
In 1538, the lantern tower of the central nave was built by Martín de Montalbán in the Plateresque-Mudéjar style. It was built on an octagonal plan on squinches and has on its exterior ajimezate windows with Plateresque decorations. Later, in 1587, with the creation of the diocese of Teruel, the building was promoted to the status of Cathedral and consecrated as such. Finally, in 1909, the facade was constructed in Neo-mudéjar style based on a design of Pau Monguió.

Sagrada Familia, uważany jest za główne osiągnięcie jej projektanta, katalońskiego architekta Antoniego Gaudí. Sagrada Família ma status bazyliki, a nie katedry, jak czasem się uważa.
Budowę kościoła rozpoczęto w 1882 roku. Początkowo jej projekt zlecono innemu architektowi, ale ten wszedł w konflikt ze stowarzyszeniem finansującym budowę świątyni. Wówczas zlecenie na budowę otrzymał Gaudí, który całkowicie zmienił projekt, nadając mu własny styl. Przez następne cztery dekady pracował intensywnie nad konstrukcją, poświęcając jej całkowicie ostatnich 15 lat życia. Podczas prac nieustannie dostosowywał i zmieniał pierwotne założenia. Wieże kościoła ukończono w 1920 r. Sześć lat później architekt wpadł pod przejeżdżający omnibus. Zmarł nie rozpoznany w przytułku dla biedaków.

Peel Mortuary Chapel graveyard.
Peel chapel The cemetery and “mortuary chapel” were consecrated on the 17th June 1872, a short distance from the village along the road to Wrexham (A528). The Mortuary Chapel was built in memory of Anna Maria Peel who died in 1860, the first wife of Edmund Peel of Bryn y Pys. Before the trees grew high, there were views over the river valley. The chapel was vandalised and burnt in the 1960s.
The Peel Mortuary Chapel and Cemetery in Overton on Dee
The Sad Story is that Edmund Peel aged 24 bought Bryn y Pys in 1848, married Anna Maria Lethbridge in 1854 and she died in 1860. She was initially buried in Overton Church graveyard before the Bishop gave permission for her to be moved to the new site.
His grief in losing his young wife resulted in his building of the mortuary chapel and cemetery, consecrated in June 1872 which was then given to the parishioners of Overton.This grief, however, may have been only part of the overall picture if we look at the context of Victorian history.

Consecrated in 1852 and built on the site of an earlier ruin this Anglican church in Gothic Revival Style was designed by Architect Sir George Gilbert Scott.
I knocked the settings on my Canon EOS 7D and bleached out all the exposures on my visit to Halton Castle Hill. All but two were unsalvageable. (Thank goodness I also took a few shots on my Nikon pocket camera and I posted those yesterday.) This was one of the two salvaged shots from the 7D and I was surprised to get this interesting image by running the bleached out almost invisible original through Adobe Photoshop plug-in Google Nik suite. The "Darker Contrasts" filter gave this result.
Old Catholic Church consecrated in 2012 and named after the female apostle Junia. Here you can see it with the Campanile, which was only erected in 2017.
The church is located on the site of the former American Sheridan Barracks, now known as Sheridan-Park in Augsburg.
Junia is only mentioned once in the Bible, in Romans 16:7. Depending on the English or German Bible translation, older versions either make her a male apostle called Junias or a woman who was not an apostle. However the New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE), which was released in 2011, and the Einheitsübersetzung 2016, a German translation of the Bible for liturgical use in Roman Catholic worship, make Junia a woman AND an apostle in their versions of the text.

It's one of the most cute churches in Slovenia, standing on a panoramic hill above the Gorenjska plane. It was consecrated in 1523 and was long time a pilgrimage place. In the church there are valuable, old fresco paintings, It's interesting that behind the church there is a small karst hole which winds are indicating connections with a deeper cave. There some archaeological artefacts were found (also coins from antiquity), indicating a possible votive place.
Consecrated to the Assumption of Mary, the Cistercian monastery dates back to its foundation in 1240 by the Lords of Hohenfels and Ehrenfels. In the course of secularization in Bavaria, the monastery was dissolved in 1803. The monastery church became a parish church. In 1806, the Carmelite nuns from Munich and Neuburg on the Danube moved into the convent complex as their central monastery. In 1838, the Salesian Sisters bought the convent and established an institute for higher daughters there. This developed into a lyceum, which existed until 1980. From 1981 to 2013, Pielenhofen was home to the elementary school of the Regensburger Domspatzen with its adjoining boarding school.
In 2010, the convent was abandoned by the sisters for lack of personnel. The last five remaining sisters moved to the Zangberg convent. In 2013, the convent buildings were sold to the Herder School Association. The association now runs a secondary school and a technical college for design in the buildings. This garden belongs to the convent.
Das Maria Himmelfahrt geweihte Kloster der Zisterzienserinnen geht auf die Gründung 1240 durch die Herren von Hohenfels und von Ehrenfels zurück. Im Zuge der Säkularisation in Bayern wurde das Kloster 1803 aufgelöst. Die Klosterkirche wurde zur Pfarrkirche. 1806 bezogen die Karmelitinnen aus München und Neuburg an der Donau die Klosteranlage als ihr Zentralkloster. 1838 kauften die Salesianerinnen das Kloster und richteten darin ein Institut für Höhere Töchter ein. Daraus entwickelte sich ein Lyzeum, das bis 1980 bestand. Von 1981 bis zum Jahr 2013 war in Pielenhofen die Grundschule der Regensburger Domspatzen mit dem angeschlossenen Internat untergebracht.
Im Jahr 2010 wurde das Kloster von den Schwestern aus Personalmangel aufgegeben. Die letzten fünf noch verbliebenen Schwestern zogen in das Kloster Zangberg um. Im Jahr 2013 wurden die Klostergebäude an den Herder-Schulverein verkauft. Der Verein betreibt in den Gebäuden nun eine Realschule sowie eine Fachoberschule für Gestaltung. Zum Kloster gehört dieser Garten.

Sur le plan architectural, l'édifice est remarquable aussi bien par ses proportions harmonieuses, liées à l'unité de sa conception, que par la qualité de ses tympans, de ses sculptures et de ses vitraux. Elle se distingue notamment des autres grandes cathédrales de l'époque par une recherche toute nouvelle d'un espace intérieur unifié. Cas exceptionnel en France pour une cathédrale gothique, elle ne possède pas de transept.
La cathédrale Saint-Étienne de Bourges est une cathédrale gothique construite entre la fin du XIIe et la fin du XIIIe siècle.
Architecturally, the building is remarkable both for its harmonious proportions, linked to the unity of its design, and for the quality of its tympanums, sculptures and stained glass windows. It differs in particular from the other great cathedrals of the time by a completely new search for a unified interior space. Exceptional case in France for a Gothic cathedral, it does not have a transept.
The Saint-Étienne de Bourges cathedral is a Gothic cathedral built between the end of the 12th and the end of the 13th century.
The cathedral marks its originality by the size of the western facade with its five portals. They are consecrated, in order and from left to right, to: Guillaume de Bourges, the Virgin Mary, the Last Judgment (central portal), to the martyr Étienne and to Ursin de Bourges. The lack of a transept probably led to a relatively simple design of the side portals.
Wikipedia: The original church of the mid-15th century had the shape of a Latin cross. It was consecrated around 1443. It is said to have been erected by prime contractors from Ghent on the site of St. John's Hospice. In 1558, French troops led by Maréchal de Thermes invaded the city and burnt the church. Only the tower survived. The old tower remained isolated and served as a bell tower, municipal belfry and daymark (navigational aid). It has been the equivalent of a listed building since 1916. The belfry is also part of the World Heritage-listed Belfries of Belgium and France (UNESCO)
L'église Saint-Éloi, surnommée la cathédrale des sables, est une église catholique située à Dunkerque, en France. Elle est classée au titre des monuments historiques en 1916. Le beffroi est aussi classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO au titre de Beffrois de Belgique et de France.
The altarpiece was originally made for the collegiate church at Lirey, near Troyes. The donor, who kneels in the robes at the foot of the Cross in the central panel , was Jean Huyard l' Aine (d.1541): his coat of arms appears in the spandrel between the two arches on the left panel, while a variant, quartered with other arms is shown on the right-hand side.
The donor was qualified as a lawyer and became canon of the church of St Peter and Paul in Troyes some time after 1487 and in 1504 he was elected Dean of the chapter of Lirey. The church in Lirey was consecrated in 1526. This retable probably decorated the high altar, was ready by then. No documentary information about the commission or the sculptor is known.
The style of the altarpiece is transitional between the late Gothic and Renaissance forms which is typical for the altarpieces in limestone produced in Troyes and are to be found in the regions of the Champagne and Aube. The scenes of the Flagellation, the Betrayal of Christ, Christ carrying the cross and Christ presented to the people are based on Albrecht Dürer's engravings of the Small and Large Passion of 1511 and 1512 respectively.
Kapelle Ciapela at the Gardena Pass

The parish of Streatley has a long history going back to Anglo Saxon times. Following the Norman conquest of 1066, Geoffrey de Mandeville was made Lord of Streatley Manor for his valour at the battle of Hastings. It was he who made a generous gift of land to support the priest, and it was he who appointed Wibert as Priest of Streatley in 1086.
The present church and chancel were practically rebuilt in 1864. Some additions were made to the tower, which was originally built in the 15th century: the turret staircase on the south side and the demolition of the original cupola which housed the Sanctus bell (circa 1549). It now hangs at the back of church.
At the beginning of the 19th century, St Mary's was in a very poor state of repair but it was extensively restored in the mid 19th century under the auspices of a Mrs Stone, who was the lady of the manor at Streatley House in the High Street. The chancel was rebuilt by the lay rector, S Pusey, Esq. In 1893, the fine Victorian reredos was erected in grateful memory of Mrs Stone. The reredos is a beautiful design in alabaster by JL Pearson RA. Besides the reredos there are a number of memorials to the Stone family. Both the east and west windows are in memory of William Henry Stone (1863).
During the 19th century rebuilding work, many of the original 13th century materials were used, such as, flint (a local material) and stone. The clerestory is an addition, the extra windows increased the light and ventilation. The columns of the nave and aisles were built in alternate bands of cream Bath stone and Berkshire chalk. In 1864 Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford, consecrated the restored church.
Under the tower arch is a marble wall slab to Sophia Small, of Chalford, Gloucestershire, spinster 1783. Near this is a tomb with painted crest, to Samuel Rush (1771). At the back of the church there is a brass plaque, which lists the Vicars of Streatley dating back to 1307, when John de Whicheford was presented with 'the tithes of the Manor at Streatlee'.
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The chapel, consecrated in 1617, is also part of the museum. It is the best preserved part of the Renaissance complex, having largely escaped damage in the 1859 fire. The chapel extends along the entire length of the west wing with a long nave and a two-storey gallery. The richly decorated six-vaulted stucco ceiling is borne by pillars rising from the galleries.
The pillars bear grisaille frescos of Biblical figures, painted in the 1690s. The galleries were decorated during the reign of Frederick III (1648–1670) as can be seen from his arms.
The Chapel's most significant artifact is the organ, built by Esajas Compenius in 1610. It was installed by Compenius himself shortly before his death in Hillerød in 1617. The oldest organ in Denmark, it has 1,001 wooden pipes. Its original manually driven blower has been preserved. The instrument is richly decorated with ebony, ivory and silver.
The altarpiece and pulpit from the early 17th century are the work of the silversmith Jacob Mores from Hamburg. In the king's prayer chamber adjoining the Chapel, there is a small silver altar crafted by the goldsmith Matthäus Wallbaum from Augsburg in 1600.
In 1208, a dispute between King John and the Pope meant that burials in consecrated ground were forbidden for about 6 years. During this time, the townspeople of Basingstoke buried their dead on the slope north of the town. Later, the ground was consecrated, and became the town’s burial ground for the next 700 years, until the new cemetery opened in Worting Road in 1913.
The first chapel was built by 1280, with a Guild of Townsmen to oversee the site and collect offerings of money and land, left as bequests in return for prayers for life after death. What we see of the earlier chapel today is part of the west wall.
This photo shows the distinctive remains, tower and window arches of another chapel, added to the original one and built around 1525 by William Lord Sandys of The Vyne as a grand burial place for his parents and family [see Ian Richard’s Flashback, Gazette 10/12/2020]. The chapel was widely known for its great beauty, for its roof and above all for its painted glass windows. It was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. Sandys’ family emblems are visible on the parapet and grave slabs. These include the hemp-breaker and cross raggulé.
Why did it fall into ruin? In the 1540s, Sandys’ chapel was caught up in the English Reformation, which saw the closure of all chantry chapels. Statues and other items used in worship were removed in what must have been a puzzling time for people. After the death of Edward VI, his sister Mary revived Catholic worship. In 1556 a charter was drawn up by Queen Mary, which established a school in the chapel. The schoolroom was attached to the west wall of the early chapel. Known as Queen Mary’s School, it survived as Queen Mary’s Grammar School for Boys and then, with comprehensive education, the name and endowment moved to Queen Mary’s College.

A window by Karl Parsons in All Saints’, Eastchurch on the Isle of Sheppey, is in memory of Hon Charles Stewart Rolls and Cecil Stanley Grace, the first British aviators to lose their lives in aircraft accidents.
"The window was consecrated in 1912 by Randall Davidson, Archbishop of Canterbury. John Newman in the Pevsner series "Buildings of England", wrote that the window was " heavily indebted to the style of Burne Jones." Charles Stewart Rolls (1877–1910) was a motoring and aviation pioneer. Together with Frederick Henry Royce he co-founded the Rolls-Royce car manufacturing firm. He was the first Briton to be killed in a flying accident, when the tail of his Wright Flyer broke off during a flying display near Bournemouth, England. He was aged 32. Cecil Stanley Grace (1880–1910) was a pioneer aviator who went missing on a flight across the English Channel later in 1910. The window was commissioned by the Royal Aero Club and Eastchurch was chosen as both men had done much of their early flying on the Isle of Sheppey. The window is of two lights entitled "Fortitude" and "Hope"."
The inscription on the window reads:
Having done all, to stand. + Turn you to the Stronghold ye prisoners of hope.
To the Glory of God

The parish church Saint Sebastian is the parish church of Ramsau nearby Berchtesgaden . It is consecrated to the saints Sebastian and Fabian. Particularly from the "Malerwinkel" with the Ramsauer Ache and the Ertlsteg in the foreground and the Reiteralpe in the background the church is a popular picture and photo motive.
It was built in 1512 under provost Gregor Rainer and was extended in 1692 in the baroque style. It has a tower with baroque onion shaped tower which is covered like the whole church with wooden shingles.
When I arrived the church it was bitter cold and almost dark and so the most photographed site from the "Malerwinkel" was already too dark to take a good photo. But as always I was looking for my perspective and view and so I went to the cemetery at the back of the church and realized a wonderful light from a big floodlight that illuminated not only St. Sebastian but also the cemetery with the graves and crosses and the beautiful snow hills in the front...

Sie wurde 1512 unter Fürstpropst Gregor Rainer erbaut und 1692 im barocken Stil erweitert. Sie hat einen Turm mit barocken Zwiebelhauben, der wie die gesamte Kirche mit Holzschindeln gedeckt ist.
Als ich die Kirche erreichte, war es bitter kalt und schon fast dunkel und so war die meistfotografierte Ansicht vom Malerwinkel zu dunkel, um ein gutes Foto zu schießen...
Aber wie immer war ich eh auf der Suche nach meiner eigenen Perspektive, als ich das Scheinwerferlicht im Friedhof bemerkte, welches nicht nur St. Sebastian, sondern auch den Friedhof mit seinen Gräbern und Kreuzen und die schönen Schneehügel beleuchtete...
St. Luke’s and Christ Church
Christchurch Street, London, SW3 4AS
The church was consecrated in 1839 due to the expansion of London. Prior to this Chelsea was open countryside. The church was essentially for working class people employed in the many grand houses in the vicinity.
The church was built in the traditional style, The Nave, Aisles and a gallery over the Aisles. It had a large pulpit in the centre but no place for a choir. A bit austere.
The church was designed by Edward Blore a very well-known individual. He designed the main front of Buckingham Palace in 1846.
In 1876 the church was gifted firstly an organ from St Michael, Queenhithe and secondly the pulpit from an unknown city church. Both these were gifts from churches that were demolished due to reconstruction of the City. In 1890 there were alterations, the nave roof was completely rebuilt, and there was further renovation to the supporting pillars between aisles and the nave. Both the west and east ends of the church were extended. Finally the western gallery and most of the old pews were removed. New larger pews were installed.
It has some lovely windows; one particularly is designed from The Creation to honour William Wilberforce and the Earl of Shaftsbury with their efforts to bring social justice into the main stream of life.
La chapelle palatine de Palerme date du 12ème siècle et réunit les styles roman, byzantin et arabe. Elle est entièrement recouverte de décorations de marbre et de mosaïques byzantines.
C’est en 1132 que la construction de la chapelle palatine commence sur ordre de Roger II, le premier roi de Sicile. Consacrée en 1140, la chapelle mélange les styles roman, byzantin et arabe, ce que l’on appelle classiquement le style arabo-normand.
La chapelle palatine mesure 38 mètres de long pour 12 mètres de large.
L’édifice comprend trois nefs séparées par des colonnes de marbre et de granit et terminées chacune par une abside.
Culminant à 18 mètres, la coupole est ornée du Christ pantocrator (Christ Tout-Puissant) nimbé de lumière. La coupole et les absides sont entièrement décorées de mosaïques byzantines du 12ème siècle illustrant des scènes de la Bible. Le sol de l’autel est orné de deux serpents-dragons représentant le chiffre 8, symbole de la résurrection.
The Palatine Chapel of Palermo dates from the 12th century and brings together the Romanesque, Byzantine and Arabic styles. It is entirely covered with marble decorations and Byzantine mosaics.
It was in 1132 that the construction of the palatine chapel began on the orders of Roger II, the first king of Sicily. Consecrated in 1140, the chapel mixes the Romanesque, Byzantine and Arabic styles, what is conventionally called the Arab-Norman style.
The palatine chapel is 38 meters long and 12 meters wide.
The building includes three naves separated by columns of marble and granite and each terminated by an apse.
Culminating at 18 meters, the dome is adorned with the Christ pantocrator (Christ Almighty) imbued with light. The cupola and apses are entirely decorated with 12th century Byzantine mosaics depicting scenes from the Bible. The floor of the altar is decorated with two dragon snakes representing the number 8, symbol of the resurrection.

The newly consecrated National Cathedral of the Romanian Orthodox Church, still under construction in Bucharest
Orthodox Patriarchs of Constantinople and Bucharest consecrate Cathedral
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanian_People%27s_Salvation_Cathe...
The Cathedral was consecrated on 25 November 2018 by the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople Bartholomew I, Patriarch Daniel of Romania and Metropolitan Chrysostomos (gr) of Patras from the Greek Orthodox Church.
The cathedral was built in the second half of XIX century in Neo-Byzantine style and dedicated to the prince of Kievan Rus who converted the country to Orthodox Christianity. Several cathedrals and churches dedicated to St. Vladimir were built in the Russian Empire to mark 900 years of St. Vladimir's baptism, with the main event of the countrywide celebration in 1888 taking place in Kyiv; unfortunately, the cathedral was not quite finished and was officially consecrated 8 years later.
Владимирский собор был построен во второй половине XIX века в нео-византийском стиле. Несколько соборов и церквей в честь Св. Владимира было построено в Российской империи к празднованию 900-летия Крещения Руси в 1888 г., и именно в Киеве это событие должно было отмечаться особо торжественно, но собор не успели завершить к празднику, и он был освящён лишь спустя 8 лет.
The collegiate church was consecrated from the start. Later (perhaps at the inauguration of the new building of 1082) the patronal feast of St. Agapitus of Praeneste. After several previous buildings had been destroyed by fire, the construction of today's church began in 1232. In 1277 Abbot Friedrich von Aich was able to inaugurate the nave for the five -hundredth anniversary of the foundation; Another 200 years passed until the Gothic Church (towers) was completed.
The church has been baroque in several phases since the beginning of the 17th century and thus changed sustainably. Under Abbot Anton Wolfradt, one was mainly limited to the conversion of the choir room, the church was subjected to comprehensive baroqueization under the direction of Carlone, by Giovanni Battista Colomba and Giovanni Battista Barberini (1625–1691). At first they removed the cloakplates set up in the early 17th century and covered the entire interior with stucco work, for which Giovanni Battista Colomba and Giovanni Battista Barberini were responsible. The west facade of the church from 1681 also comes from the latter. For the fresco equipment inside, the scenes from the Old Testament, the Grabenberger brothers from Krems were won, of which Michael Christoph was particularly characterized. This second phase of baroqueization was completed after twelve years of work.
Under Abbot Alexander Strasser (1709–1731), the redesign of the collegiate church came to an end. In this third phase, the high altarpiece and the tabernacle, the pulpit, the wide staircase up to the presbytery and the side altars fall. Particularly noteworthy are the baroque angel made of marble by Johann Michael Zürn the younger one, who, in addition to the numerous side altar knees and stand, impressive examples of the Austrian baroque. The collegiate church of St. Agapitus has remarkable dimensions. It is 78 meters long and 21 meters wide. The main ship is 18 meters, the side aisles are 12 meters high.
L'église collégiale a été consacrée dès le début. Plus tard (peut-être à l'inauguration du nouveau bâtiment de 1082) la fête patronale de St. Agapitus de Praeneste. Après que plusieurs bâtiments précédents aient été détruits par le feu, la construction de l'église d'aujourd'hui a commencé en 1232. En 1277, l'abbé Friedrich von Aich a pu inaugurer la nef pour le cinq centième anniversaire de la Fondation; De plus 200 ans ont passé jusqu'à ce que l'église gothique (tours) soit terminée.
L'église est baroque en plusieurs phases depuis le début du XVIIe siècle et a donc changé de manière durable. Sous l'abbé Anton Wolfradt, l'un était principalement limité à la conversion de la salle de chorale, l'église a été soumise à une baroqueisation complète sous la direction de Carlone, par Giovanni Battista Colomba et Giovanni Battista Barberini (1625-1691). Au début, ils ont retiré les calculs installés au début du XVIIe siècle et couvraient l'intérieur de l'intérieur avec des travaux de stuc, pour lesquels Giovanni Battista Colomba et Giovanni Battista Barberini étaient responsables. La façade ouest de l'église de 1681 vient également de ce dernier. Pour l'équipement de fresque à l'intérieur, les scènes de l'Ancien Testament, les frères Grabenberger de Krems ont été gagnés, dont Michael Christoph a été particulièrement caractérisé. Cette deuxième phase de baroqueisation a été achevée après douze ans de travail.
Sous l'abbé Alexander Strasser (1709-1731), la refonte de l'église collégiale a pris fin. Dans cette troisième phase, le compte rendu haut et le tabernacle, la chaire, l'escalier large jusqu'au presbytère et les autels latéraux tombent. L'ange baroque est particulièrement remarquable en marbre par Johann Michael Zürn le plus jeune, qui, en plus des nombreux genoux de l'autel d'équipe, des exemples impressionnants du baroque autrichien. L'église collégiale de Saint-Agapitus a des dimensions remarquables. Il mesure 78 mètres de long et 21 mètres de large. Le navire principal est de 18 mètres, les allées latérales mesurent 12 mètres de haut.
