Mespelbrunn Castle is a late-medieval/early-Renaissance moated castle on the territory of the town of Mespelbrunn, between Frankfurt and Würzburg, built in a tributary valley of the Elsava valley, within the Spessart forest. It is a popular tourist attraction and has become a famous Spessart landmark.
The first precursor of Mespelbrunn Castle was a simple house. The owner was Hamann Echter, vizedom of Aschaffenburg, a title which means that he was the representative of the ruling prince, the Archbishop of Mainz Johann von Nassau-Wiesbaden-Idstein (de) at the castle and town of Aschaffenburg. On 1 May 1412, Johann gave the site, a forest clearing next to a pond, to Echter, a knight, who constructed a house without fortifications. It was a reward for Echter's services against the Czechs. The Echter family (de) originates from the Odenwald region. Their name presumably means "der die Acht vollstreckt", the executor of the ostracism. In the 15th century the Spessart was a wild and unexploited virgin forest, used as a hideout by bandits and Hussites, who despoiled the regions nearby. Therefore, in 1427 Hamann Echter, the son of the first owner, began to rebuild his father's house to a fortified castle with walls, towers, and a moat using the nearby lake.
In 1957, Mespelbrunn Castle was one of the locations of the German film Das Wirtshaus im Spessart (The Spessart Inn, 1958), based on the novella by Wilhelm Hauff.

A blue hour view of the former St. Nicholas Hotel (tall building) and Annex in the 100 block of N. Fourth St. in Springfield's historic downtown. This view is to the northeast just south of the intersection of Fourth & Washington St.
The St. Nicholas Hotel is a historic hotel building located in downtown Springfield. The original building of the St. Nicholas Hotel was constructed in 1855, and no longer exists. A 6-story annex, seen here to the right of the main building, was built on the hotel in 1910, and the current 11-story main building was constructed in 1924.
The Georgian Revival-style main building was designed by the New York City architectural firm H.L. Stevens and Company. When the current main building opened, it was the second-tallest building in Springfield after the State Capitol.
During sessions of the Illinois General Assembly, the St. Nicholas Hotel became a meeting place for Illinois politicians. The hotel has hosted many notable visitors to Springfield, including U.S. Presidents Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy.
In Illinois political lore, the St. Nicholas is best known as the residence of Paul Powell during his tenure from 1965 to 1970 as Illinois Secretary of State. Within days after his death in 1970, the executor of Powell's will found $750,000 in cash stored in shoeboxes, briefcases, and strongboxes in Powell's suite. Another $50,000 was found in his office. As the money greatly exceeded Powell's salary, which was at the most $30,000 per year, a federal investigation examined Powell's behavior while in office. The investigation determined that Powell had acquired the money via illegal cash bribes and led to the imprisonment of several state contractors.
The hotel was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, and also is a contributing building to the Central Springfield Historic District. Today this historic hotel building has been repurposed as the St. Nicholas Apartments.

O Rage, O Despair! On June 6, 1944, the D.DAY took place in Normandy! On June 10 the village of Oradour sur Glane is massacred !!!!!
Ce titre est en rapport avec les quelques lettres qui restent sur un des bâtiments de la gare d'Oradour sur Glane,
This title is related to the few letters that remain on one of the buildings of the station of Oradour sur Glane
------
Samedi 10 juin 1944 : la vie du paisible bourg limousin d’Oradour-sur-Glane est anéantie en quelques heures par une action brutale, méthodique et délibérée d’une partie de la division Waffen SS Das Reich. Comment un tel acte a-t-il pu être mené et préparé ? Les dépositions des survivants et témoins, complétées des auditions des accusés entendus par la suite, ainsi que l’étude des documents d’archives, permettent de restituer le déroulement du massacre et d’éclairer l’implacable logique l’ayant suscité.
Oradour avant le massacre
Situé à une vingtaine de kilomètres au nord ouest de Limoges, Oradour est un bourg rural dont la population s’élève, lors du recensement de 1936, à 1574 habitants. Du fait de la guerre, on y compte également de nombreux réfugiés, comme dans tout le département : espagnols chassés par le franquisme, évacués alsaciens, expulsés mosellans, Juifs français ou étrangers fuyant les persécutions.
Sa situation et son activité commerçante et agricole attirent également, en ces temps de rationnement, de nombreux citadins venus se ravitailler ou s’y mettre à l’abri : le chemin de fer départemental relie en effet la bourgade à Limoges et Saint-Junien depuis 1911.
Le bourg central compte 330 habitants, regroupe les commerces, artisans, services publics ainsi que quatre écoles. Les hameaux environnants, dépendants de la commune, y envoient leurs enfants.
En ce samedi 10 juin, le bourg est donc peuplé, animé, vivant, jusqu’aux toutes premières heures de l’après-midi.
Qui sont les exécuteurs ?
La troupe qui se rend à Oradour est constituée de trois sections de la 3e compagnie du régiment blindé Der Führer de la division Waffen SS Das Reich.
Créée en 1938, cette division est l’une des plus anciennes des formations de la Waffen SS, branche armée des forces nazies. Engagée successivement dans les campagnes d’annexion et d’invasion en Europe occidentale et centrale et dans les Balkans, puis dans les combats du front de l’Est, elle s’y initie aux exécutions de masse de populations civiles qu’elle met en oeuvre impitoyablement sous les ordres de son commandement : la terreur devient sa signature.
Décimée lors de sa retraite du front russe, elle est retirée des combats et reconstituée au camps de Souges, près de Bordeaux, au printemps 1944. On lui adjoint de nouvelles recrues, de diverses nationalités, alors à l’instruction.
La troupe, sous-encadrée, hétérogène et en manque de matériel, est envoyée dans les environs de Montauban où elle commet exactions, exécutions et incendies, appliquant les méthodes utilisées à l’Est.
La division Das Reich en Limousin
Le 8 juin, une partie de la division Das Reich se met en route vers la région de Tulle et Limoges, afin d’y mener des opérations de ratissage en réponse aux actions de la Résistance qui se multiplient. Ce mouvement répond aux propositions formulées par le général Lammerding, commandant de la division, dans un rapport à sa hiérarchie en date du 5 juin visant à la criminalisation des “bandes” par la pression sur les populations civiles, ainsi qu’à l’application de mesures répressives brutales pour une “reprise en main de la zone”.
8500 hommes environ participent à ce déplacement jalonné de massacres, pillages, incendies, et atteignent le 9 juin Limoges, Guéret, et Argenton-sur-Creuse.
Ce même jour, la pendaison de 99 otages et la déportation de nombreux habitants de Tulle s’inscrit dans une succession de drames qui culminera à Oradour, le lendemain 10 Juin.
Un massacre préparé
Le 9 juin, le régiment d’infanterie blindée Der Führer investit la ville de Limoges et sa périphérie. L’état-major s’installe à Limoges, le premier bataillon est positionné à l’ouest, à Rochechouart et Saint-Junien. Il reçoit alors l’ordre de rejoindre le 11 juin le front ouvert par le débarquement des forces alliées en Normandie. Dans l’intervalle, on met au point l’”action exemplaire” préconisée par Lammerding.
Des réunions sont connues grâce aux dossiers d’archives : le vendredi 9 entre miliciens à Limoges, puis le samedi 10 au matin successivement à Limoges et à Saint-Junien, entre officiers Waffen SS et policiers SS en poste à Limoges.
Des miliciens suivent les opérations.
Le cantonnement de la troupe positionnée à Saint-Junien est prévu le 10 au soir à Nieul. Entre les deux localités : Oradour.
Le 10 juin, la 3e compagnie, soit environ 200 Waffen SS commandés par le capitaine Kahn, se met en route aux environs de 13 heures.
La troupe approche du bourg et les hommes reçoivent des ordres. Le périmètre des exécutions est délimité. Lorsque les premiers véhicules entrent dans Oradour, le bourg est déjà méthodiquement encerclé. Les habitants sont systématiquement rabattus vers l’intérieur du bourg et rassemblés sur le champ de foire : ordre est donné d’abattre ceux qui ne peuvent s’y rendre. Sur le champ de foire cerné par les soldats, les hommes sont séparés des femmes et des enfants qui sont conduits dans l’église. Les hommes sont répartis dans des lieux clos repérés préalablement. Un signal est donné : ils sont alors simultanément exécutés. La troupe tue au hasard des rues et des habitations ; le village est pillé et incendié. Femmes et enfants sont massacrés dans l’église, que les soldats tentent de détruire avec des explosifs. En début de soirée, une partie de la troupe rejoint son cantonnement : d’autres hommes gardent le bourg dévasté. Le lendemain, une section revient et procède à l’élimination systématique des corps par le feu et la fosse commune. Cet outrage aux cadavres rend impossible l’identification des morts, prolongeant la terreur jusque dans l’interdiction du deuil. On dénombrera 643 victimes.

Saturday, June 10, 1944: the life of the peaceful Limousin town of Oradour-sur-Glane is destroyed in a few hours by a brutal, methodical and deliberate action by part of the Waffen SS Das Reich division. How could such an act have been carried out and prepared? The depositions of the survivors and witnesses, supplemented by the hearings of the accused heard subsequently, as well as the study of archival documents, make it possible to reconstruct the course of the massacre and to shed light on the implacable logic that gave rise to it.
Oradour before the massacre
Located about twenty kilometers north-west of Limoges, Oradour is a rural town whose population rises, during the 1936 census, to 1574 inhabitants. Because of the war, there are also many refugees there, as in the whole department: Spaniards expelled by Francoism, Alsatian evacuees, Moselle expelled, French Jews or foreigners fleeing persecution.
Its location and its commercial and agricultural activity also attracted, in these times of rationing, many city dwellers who came to get supplies or take shelter there: the departmental railway links the town to Limoges and Saint-Junien from 1911.
The central town has 330 inhabitants, includes shops, craftsmen, public services and four schools. The surrounding hamlets, dependent on the municipality, send their children there.
On this Saturday, June 10, the town is therefore populated, lively, alive, until the very early hours of the afternoon.
Who are the executors?
The troop going to Oradour is made up of three sections of the 3rd company of the armored regiment Der Führer of the Waffen SS Das Reich division.
Created in 1938, this division is one of the oldest formations of the Waffen SS, the armed wing of the Nazi forces. Engaged successively in the annexation and invasion campaigns in Western and Central Europe and in the Balkans, then in the battles on the Eastern Front, she learned about the mass executions of civilian populations which she put in works ruthlessly under the orders of his command: terror becomes his signature.
Decimated during its retirement from the Russian front, it was withdrawn from combat and reconstituted at the Souges camp, near Bordeaux, in the spring of 1944. New recruits of various nationalities were added to it, then in training.
The troop, under-supervised, heterogeneous and lacking in equipment, is sent to the vicinity of Montauban where it commits atrocities, executions and fires, applying the methods used in the East.
The Das Reich division in Limousin
On June 8, part of the Das Reich division set out for the region of Tulle and Limoges, in order to carry out search operations there in response to the actions of the Resistance which were multiplying. This movement responds to the proposals made by General Lammerding, commander of the division, in a report to his hierarchy dated June 5 aimed at the criminalization of "gangs" by pressure on civilian populations, as well as the application of brutal repressive measures for a “recovery of the area”.
About 8,500 men took part in this movement punctuated by massacres, looting, fires, and on June 9 reached Limoges, Guéret, and Argenton-sur-Creuse.
That same day, the hanging of 99 hostages and the deportation of many inhabitants of Tulle is part of a succession of dramas which will culminate in Oradour, the next day June 10.
A prepared massacre
On June 9, the armored infantry regiment Der Führer invested the city of Limoges and its outskirts. The staff moved to Limoges, the first battalion was positioned to the west, in Rochechouart and Saint-Junien. He then received the order to join on June 11 the front opened by the landing of the Allied forces in Normandy. In the meantime, the “exemplary action” advocated by Lammerding was developed.
Meetings are known thanks to archive files: Friday 9 between militiamen in Limoges, then Saturday morning 10 successively in Limoges and Saint-Junien, between Waffen SS officers and SS policemen stationed in Limoges.
Militiamen follow the operations.
The cantonment of the troop positioned in Saint-Junien is planned for the evening of the 10th in Nieul. Between the two localities: Oradour.
On June 10, the 3rd company, about 200 Waffen SS commanded by Captain Kahn, set off around 1 p.m.
The troops approach the village and the men receive orders. The scope of the executions is delimited. When the first vehicles enter Oradour, the town is already methodically surrounded. The inhabitants are systematically pushed towards the interior of the town and gathered on the fairground: the order is given to shoot those who cannot go there. On the fairground surrounded by soldiers, the men are separated from the women and children who are led into the church. The men are distributed in closed places identified beforehand. A signal is given: they are then simultaneously executed. The troops randomly kill streets and houses; the village is looted and burned. Women and children are massacred in the church, which the soldiers try to destroy with explosives. At the beginning of the evening, part of the troops returned to their quarters: other men guarded the devastated town. The next day, a section returns and proceeds to the systematic elimination of the bodies by fire and the mass grave. This insult to the corpses makes it impossible to identify the dead, prolonging the terror even in the prohibition of mourning. There will be 643 victims.

Mespelbrunn Castle is a late-medieval/early-Renaissance moated castle on the territory of the town of Mespelbrunn, between Frankfurt and Würzburg, built in a tributary valley of the Elsava valley, within the Spessart forest. It is a popular tourist attraction and has become a famous Spessart landmark.
The first precursor of Mespelbrunn Castle was a simple house. The owner was Hamann Echter, vizedom of Aschaffenburg, a title which means that he was the representative of the ruling prince, the Archbishop of Mainz Johann von Nassau-Wiesbaden-Idstein (de) at the castle and town of Aschaffenburg. On 1 May 1412, Johann gave the site, a forest clearing next to a pond, to Echter, a knight, who constructed a house without fortifications. It was a reward for Echter's services against the Czechs. The Echter family (de) originates from the Odenwald region. Their name presumably means "der die Acht vollstreckt", the executor of the ostracism. In the 15th century the Spessart was a wild and unexploited virgin forest, used as a hideout by bandits and Hussites, who despoiled the regions nearby. Therefore, in 1427 Hamann Echter, the son of the first owner, began to rebuild his father's house to a fortified castle with walls, towers, and a moat using the nearby lake.
In 1957, Mespelbrunn Castle was one of the locations of the German film Das Wirtshaus im Spessart (The Spessart Inn, 1958), based on the novella by Wilhelm Hauff.

Ucero, Soria, Castilla y León, España.
Ucero es una villa y también un municipio de la provincia de Soria, partido judicial de Burgo de Osma, comunidad autónoma de Castilla y León, en España.
Dista 63,2 kilómetros de la capital y se encuentra a una altitud de 964 metros en la carretera que conduce de El Burgo de Osma a San Leonardo.
Junto con Herrera de Soria y Nafría de Ucero regenta un condominio conocido como Comunidad de Herrera de Soria, Nafría de Ucero y Ucero, con una extensión superficial de 384,84 hectáreas.
El señorío de Ucero perteneció en el siglo XIII a Juan García de Ucero, esposo de María de Meneses, y a la muerte de aquel, su esposa lo heredó y se lo entregó a la hija ilegítima que tuvo con el rey Sancho IV de Castilla, Violante Sánchez de Castilla.
Y en un documento emitido el 13 de noviembre de 1325 en Aviñón, el papa Juan XXII encomendó al arzobispo de Toledo, Juan de Aragón, que siguiera la causa o pleito que mantenían Violante Sánchez y el obispo de Osma, Juan Pérez de Ascarón, por la posesión del señorío de Ucero, que pertenecía legalmente a ella por la herencia de su madre y había sido ocupado y retenido ilegalmente por dicho obispo, según ella, desde que aquel lo compró el 23 de mayo de 1302 por 300.000 maravedís, y junto con otras propiedades, a los albaceas de Juan García de Villamayor, según consta en la escritura de venta publicada en el tomo II de las Memorias de Fernando IV de Castilla. Pero a pesar de lo anterior, Violante continuó considerándose propietaria del señorío y en 1327 lo donó, junto con el resto de sus posesiones, a la Orden de Santiago, a pesar de que el señorío de Ucero perteneció desde 1302 definitivamente a los obispos de Osma.
En el Censo de 1879, ordenado por el Conde de Floridablanca, figuraba como villa cabecera del Partido de Ucero en la Intendencia de Soria, con jurisdicción de abadengo y bajo la autoridad del Alcalde Mayor de Señorío, nombrado por el Obispo de Osma. Contaba entonces con 232 habitantes.
A la caída del Antiguo Régimen la localidad de constituye en municipio constitucional en la región de Castilla la Vieja que en el censo de 1842 contaba con 38 hogares y 150 vecinos.
Ucero is a town and also a municipality in the province of Soria, judicial district of Burgo de Osma, autonomous community of Castilla y León, in Spain.
It is 63.2 kilometers from the capital and is located at an altitude of 964 meters on the road that leads from El Burgo de Osma to San Leonardo.
Together with Herrera de Soria and Nafría de Ucero he runs a condominium known as Comunidad de Herrera de Soria, Nafría de Ucero and Ucero, with a surface area of 384.84 hectares.
The lordship of Ucero belonged in the thirteenth century to Juan García de Ucero, husband of María de Meneses, and upon his death, his wife inherited it and gave it to the illegitimate daughter he had with King Sancho IV of Castile, Violante Sánchez of Castilla.
And in a document issued on November 13, 1325 in Avignon, Pope John XXII entrusted the Archbishop of Toledo, Juan de Aragón, to follow the cause or lawsuit maintained by Violante Sánchez and the Bishop of Osma, Juan Pérez de Ascarón, for the possession of the lordship of Ucero, which legally belonged to her by inheritance from her mother and had been illegally occupied and retained by said bishop, according to her, since he bought it on May 23, 1302 for 300,000 maravedís, and together with other properties, to the executors of Juan García de Villamayor, as recorded in the deed of sale published in Volume II of the Memoirs of Fernando IV of Castile. But despite the above, Violante continued to consider herself the owner of the manor and in 1327 He donated it, along with the rest of his possessions, to the Order of Santiago, despite the fact that the dominion of Ucero belonged definitively from 1302 to the bishops of Osma.
In the 1879 Census, ordered by the Count of Floridablanca, it appeared as the head town of the Ucero Party in the Municipality of Soria, with jurisdiction of abadengo and under the authority of the Mayor of Señorío, appointed by the Bishop of Osma. It then had 232 inhabitants.
At the fall of the Old Regime, the town of constitutes a constitutional municipality in the region of Castilla la Vieja, which in the 1842 census had 38 homes and 150 neighbors.
The first dream added a palace to reality; the second, which occurred five centuries later, a poem (or the beginning of a poem) suggested by the palace; the similarity of the dreams hints of a plan; the enormous length of time involved reveals a superhuman executor... It is legitimate to suspect that he has not yet achieved his goal... Such facts raise the possibility that this series of dreams and works has not yet ended. The first dreamer was given the vision of the palace, and he built it; the second, who did not know of the other's dream, was given the poem about the palace. If this plan does not fail, someone, on a night centuries removed from us, will dream the same dream, and not suspect that others have dreamed it, and he will give it a form of marble or music. Perhaps this series of dreams has no end, or perhaps the last will be the key... Perhaps an archetype not yet revealed to mankind, an eternal object, is gradually entering the world.

It is a popular tourist attraction and has become a famous Spessart landmark.
The first precursor of Mespelbrunn Castle was a simple house. The owner was Hamann Echter, vizedom of Aschaffenburg, a title which means that he was the representative of the ruling prince, the Archbishop of Mainz Johann von Nassau-Wiesbaden-Idstein (de) at the castle and town of Aschaffenburg. On 1 May 1412, Johann gave the site, a forest clearing next to a pond, to Echter, a knight, who constructed a house without fortifications. It was a reward for Echter's services against the Czechs. The Echter family (de) originates from the Odenwald region. Their name presumably means "der die Acht vollstreckt", the executor of the ostracism. In the 15th century the Spessart was a wild and unexploited virgin forest, used as a hideout by bandits and Hussites, who despoiled the regions nearby. Therefore, in 1427 Hamann Echter, the son of the first owner, began to rebuild his father's house to a fortified castle with walls, towers, and a moat using the nearby lake.

The brother Sanders II, Bernd Droste zu Senden, married in 1481 the heiress Anna von Heiden to Beck (1462-1492) and established the line of the Droste to Beck at Beck Castle . Sander III. Droste zu Senden was entrusted with the Gogericht zu Senden in 1510 by the mayor and council of the city of Münster, and in 1519 he was elected by the provincial authorities as the executor of the state association. 1587 is reported by the pillage and plundering of the village and the house sending by the "Hispanic" during the Spanish-Dutch Eighty Years War .
By inheritances 1680 good Patzlar and 1713 good Isingholt were added, 1729 good Venhaus by purchase. [1]
The castle was occupied by British soldiers during the Second World War, partly devastated and plundered. In 1957 it sold the baronial family Droste zu Senden , which, however, to this day holds the associated estate and the Senden'schen Hof in Münster; new residence was the nearby forester Wulfshoek.
The purchaser of the castle operated there first a commercial school board, then a retirement pension and finally since the 1980s until the late 1990s, a hotel, which was closed after a fire in the attic. Thereafter, the building was largely empty and housed only the sculptor courses of the Art School Send. D
At the top of the street at the splayed junction with Lion Street. Built 1884 by J C Haddon of Hereford. It originated in a legacy by Captain Brown for a clock for the church tower. This idea was expanded by the executors to include the town clock, public hall and corn exchange but only the former was built; cost £600.

El Panecillo is currently crowned by a giant aluminum sculpture of the «Virgin of Quito», created in 1975 by the Spaniard Agustín de la Herrán Matorras, which was based on the Virgin of Legarda or Apocalíptica; 18th century work by Bernardo de Legarda, one of the most important representatives of the Quito School, which we can see on the main altar of the Church of San Francisco.
The Majestic Virgin of Quito, is composed of seven thousand four hundred pieces, numbered each of them, so it could be joined as a puzzle; This is the largest representation of aluminum in the world and occupies the 58th place among the highest images in the world, it is even higher than the image of The Christ the Redeemer of Brazil.
On November 4, 1955, permission is given to make the foundations or base of the monument, the base is seen, the same one that is eleven meters high, is made of stone and reinforced cement, made up of 18 columns representing the provinces that until that year had Ecuador.
Father Rigoberto Correa is the executor of the work.
The work was inaugurated on March 28, 1975 with a bell mass attended by 1500 people who went on pilgrimage from the Basilica of the National Vote (it was a pre-inauguration, because the wings were still to be assembled).
In the month of September 1975, the wings have just been placed.
The material in which the monument is made is PERALUMAN 3 which is an alloy of platinum aluminum, tin and other metals, these pieces are welded with small pieces of platinum and bolted.
The sculpture represents the Virgin Mary as described in the biblical book of Revelation: a woman with wings, a chain that catches the snake that is under her feet and that represents the beast. That is why in addition to the names of Virgin of Quito or Virgin of Legarda (by the sculptor of the original work), this statue is also called Virgin of the Apocalypse.

C’est par le jeu des héritages et de diverses acquisitions que Louis de Gruuthuse entre en possession de différentes seigneuries qui lui procurent les revenus nécessaires. Une autre source importante de revenus est la taxe qu’il est en droit de percevoir sur (presque) chaque tonneau de bière importé ou localement brassé, le ‘gruutgeld’.
Grâce à ces revenus, Louis est en mesure de mener un train de vie luxueux. Splendeur et fastes caractérisent sa cour. C’est sous son règne que le Palais Gruuthuse fait l’objet d’une extension importante sous la forme de l’aile principale. Il fait aussi construire la chapelle richement décorée. Il collectionne et commande des manuscrits richement enluminés. Il possède une vaste bibliothèque, qui comprend, en plus de manuscrits, des ouvrages du célèbre imprimeur brugeois Colard Mansion. Ses revenus lui permettent aussi de jouer un rôle politique, diplomatique et militaire important à Bruges et au-delà des limites de cette ville.
À un très jeune âge, Louis pourvoit le duc Philippe le Bon de Bourgogne d’écuyers. À partir de là, sa carrière est étroitement liée à la cour bourguignonne. Il prend part à des actions militaires et entreprend des missions diplomatiques pour les ducs successifs, à savoir Philippe le Bon, Charles le Téméraire et Marie de Bourgogne. Ces missions le mettent aussi en contact avec la maison royale anglaise.
À la mort de Marie de Bourgogne – décès intervenu à un jeune âge –, Louis de Gruuthuse est désigné comme étant l’un des exécuteurs testamentaires. Lors des événements intervenant après ce décès, Louis se trouve opposé à l’époux de Marie, Maximilien d’Autriche. Tous les biens de Louis sont confisqués en 1485. Il se retrouve même enfermé dans une cellule d’une prison de Malines pendant trois ans. Louis est libéré à la faveur d’une évolution de la situation politique, mais Maximilien reprend le pouvoir en Flandre dès 1489. Ceci sonne définitivement le glas de la carrière de Louis. En 1491, il est accusé de trahison lors d’une réunion capitulaire de l’Ordre de la Toison d’or et il tombe en disgrâce. Avant même que ne soit prononcé un verdict, il décède dans son palais à Bruges.
It was through inheritance and various acquisitions that Louis de Gruuthuse came into possession of various seigneuries which provided him with the necessary income. Another important source of income is the tax he is entitled to levy on (almost) every barrel of imported or locally brewed beer, the ‘gruutgeld’.
Thanks to this income, Louis is able to lead a luxurious lifestyle. Splendor and splendor characterize his court. It was under his reign that the Gruuthuse Palace underwent a major extension in the form of the main wing. He also built the richly decorated chapel. He collects and commissions richly illuminated manuscripts. It has an extensive library, which includes, in addition to manuscripts, works by the famous Bruges printer Colard Mansion. Its income also allows it to play an important political, diplomatic and military role in Bruges and beyond the limits of this city.
At a very young age, Louis provided Duke Philip the Good of Burgundy with squires. From there, his career is closely linked to the Burgundian court. He took part in military actions and undertook diplomatic missions for the successive dukes, namely Philippe le Bon, Charles le Téméraire and Marie de Bourgogne. These missions also put him in contact with the English royal house.
On the death of Marie de Bourgogne – who died at a young age – Louis de Gruuthuse was designated as one of the executors. During the events occurring after this death, Louis finds himself opposed to Marie's husband, Maximilian of Austria. All of Louis' property was confiscated in 1485. He even found himself locked up in a cell in a Mechelen prison for three years. Louis was freed thanks to a change in the political situation, but Maximilian regained power in Flanders in 1489. This definitely sounded the death knell for Louis' career. In 1491, he was accused of treason at a chapter meeting of the Order of the Golden Fleece and fell into disgrace. Even before a verdict is pronounced, he dies in his palace in Bruges.

Deep in the jungle of Lamia rises the Forgotten Temple.
Built by the citizens of a devastated city that was erased in the War of the Three Hundred Years.
It is said that the temple holds mysteries and treasures, unimaginable powers that every adventurer seeks and desires.
Many have tried to claim them for their own selfish reasons, but none have survived the attempt.
The Gnoll Sentinel defends the temple and protects it from every intruder.
This warrior is the last survivor of his race and worships the Golden God.
With his sacred blade, forged in the magical anvil of the temple, he is a fearsome and powerful enemy to face.
Ages have passed, and the world has forgotten his name. Yet still he guards the ruins, waiting for the one who will release him from his vow.
When the runes on his blade ignite, the oath awakens, and the jungle remembers the sound of war.

Everything returns to its origin.
Or so people say.
I left this place behind a long time ago.
So long...
it feels like another lifetime.
In my journey, war taught me that victory doesn’t always belong to the winner.
And not every price is worth paying in its name.
I ventured into places no one remembers anymore,
looking for what was taken from my people.
And yet—
here I am.
Back where it all started.
Back where the seed, was planted.
Funny, isn’t it? So funny it seems like a bad joke.
Some places just seem determined to never let you go.

Mespelbrunn Castle is a late-medieval/early-Renaissance moated castle on the territory of the town of Mespelbrunn, between Frankfurt and Würzburg, built in a tributary valley of the Elsava valley, within the Spessart forest. It is a popular tourist attraction and has become a famous Spessart landmark.
The first precursor of Mespelbrunn Castle was a simple house. The owner was Hamann Echter, vizedom of Aschaffenburg, a title which means that he was the representative of the ruling prince, the Archbishop of Mainz Johann von Nassau-Wiesbaden-Idstein (de) at the castle and town of Aschaffenburg. On 1 May 1412, Johann gave the site, a forest clearing next to a pond, to Echter, a knight, who constructed a house without fortifications. It was a reward for Echter's services against the Czechs. The Echter family (de) originates from the Odenwald region. Their name presumably means "der die Acht vollstreckt", the executor of the ostracism. In the 15th century the Spessart was a wild and unexploited virgin forest, used as a hideout by bandits and Hussites, who despoiled the regions nearby. Therefore, in 1427 Hamann Echter, the son of the first owner, began to rebuild his father's house to a fortified castle with walls, towers, and a moat using the nearby lake.
In 1957, Mespelbrunn Castle was one of the locations of the German film Das Wirtshaus im Spessart (The Spessart Inn, 1958), based on the novella by Wilhelm Hauff.
Nizhny Novgorod, Russia
Built 1866 - 1881
Architect and style: controversial or unclear for non-specialist (as me)
Domes and interior decoration was destroyed at Soviet period, the building was used for other purposes. Fortunately, restoration began in 1983 and finished recently.
Nowadays the Cathedral and surrounding space with walking areas and observation decks looks extremely beautiful - great respect to authors and executors of the project. Daylght, at sunset or night - the visual experiences are very different but always wonderful.

Mespelbrunn Castle is a late-medieval/early-Renaissance moated castle on the territory of the town of Mespelbrunn, between Frankfurt and Würzburg, built in a tributary valley of the Elsava valley, within the Spessart forest. It is a popular tourist attraction and has become a famous Spessart landmark.

" I'm always screamin' my lungs out 'til my head starts spinnin'
Playin' my songs is the way I cope with life
Won't keep my voice down
Know the words I speak are the thoughts I think out loud
I like to keep things honest
I'm a safe bet like your life's staked on it, for real
I'd hate to keep you all wonderin'
I'm constant like the seasons, I will never be forgotten, man
Let's leave no words unspoken
And save regrets for the broken
Will you even look back when you think of me?
All I want is a place to call my own
To mend the hearts of everyone who feels alone
Whoa, you know
To keep your hopes up high and your head down low
Keep your hopes up high and your head down low
Still got something left to prove, it tends to keep things movin'
While everyone around me says my last days are looming overhead
But just what the hell do they think they know?
My head's above the water while they drown in the undertow
Let's leave no words unspoken
And save regrets for the broken
Will you even look back when you think of me?
All I want is a place to call my own
To mend the hearts of everyone who feels alone
Whoa, you know
To keep your hopes up high and your head down low
All I want is a place to call my own
To mend the hearts of everyone who feels alone
Whoa, you know
To keep your hopes up high and your head down low
If you take it from me
Live your life for yourself
'Cause when it's all said and done
You don't need anyone else, come on
So let's get back to when everything seemed perfect
Not a worry in the world, tell me, was it all worth it?
I get what I want, so everyone's always judgin' me
Not afraid of anything, I've got the whole world in front of me
All I want is a place to call my own
To mend the hearts of everyone who feels alone
Whoa, you know
To keep your hopes up high and your head down low
All I want is a place to call my own
To mend the hearts of everyone who feels alone
Whoa, you know
To keep your hopes up high and your head down low
Keep your head down low
Keep your head down low
Keep your hopes up high and your head down low ... "

El Panecillo is currently crowned by a giant aluminum sculpture of the «Virgin of Quito», created in 1975 by the Spaniard Agustín de la Herrán Matorras, which was based on the Virgin of Legarda or Apocalíptica; 18th century work by Bernardo de Legarda, one of the most important representatives of the Quito School, which we can see on the main altar of the Church of San Francisco.
The Majestic Virgin of Quito, is composed of seven thousand four hundred pieces, numbered each of them, so it could be joined as a puzzle; This is the largest representation of aluminum in the world and occupies the 58th place among the highest images in the world, it is even higher than the image of The Christ the Redeemer of Brazil.
On November 4, 1955, permission is given to make the foundations or base of the monument, the base is seen, the same one that is eleven meters high, is made of stone and reinforced cement, made up of 18 columns representing the provinces that until that year had Ecuador.
Father Rigoberto Correa is the executor of the work.
The work was inaugurated on March 28, 1975 with a bell mass attended by 1500 people who went on pilgrimage from the Basilica of the National Vote (it was a pre-inauguration, because the wings were still to be assembled).
In the month of September 1975, the wings have just been placed.
The material in which the monument is made is PERALUMAN 3 which is an alloy of platinum aluminum, tin and other metals, these pieces are welded with small pieces of platinum and bolted.
The sculpture represents the Virgin Mary as described in the biblical book of Revelation: a woman with wings, a chain that catches the snake that is under her feet and that represents the beast. That is why in addition to the names of Virgin of Quito or Virgin of Legarda (by the sculptor of the original work), this statue is also called Virgin of the Apocalypse.
***
IMPORTANT DATA:
The globe represents the world and above it is the snake, which represents the sin that Eve committed
The base of the monument measures eleven meters and thirty meters the image of the Blessed Virgin
Upon entering the monument visitors are at 3016 m.a.s.l. and when arriving at the viewpoint at 3027 m.s.n.m.
The weight of the statue is 124,000 kilograms
The Virgin's open wing measures 90 square meters. These pieces were assembled on land and then assembled to the body
The crown of the Virgin is composed of 12 stars representing the 12 apostles or the 12 tribes of Israel
The face of the Virgin Mary, like the rest of the parts, were brought from Spain by boat, to Ecuador in 1974
The dragon's head represents the demon
"...... delivering absolution, raises thought-provoking questions about power, morality, and the complexities of human agency. the agent becomes both arbiter and executor, wielding the tools of violence to grant forgiveness or redemption."
This fabulous honeysuckle (my favourite climber) is here as a tribute to my Mum's house, which is back on the estate agent's website again. Just over a month ago we thought we had a buyer and we got as far as contracts being emailed to my brother-in-law (the other executor) and me, but a week ago we were told our buyer had to pull out as their buyer wasn't happy with their house! We gave them a week to see if there was anything they could to (eg. drop their price or get the work done) - they haven't, so rather than waste anymore time or money on the solicitor we advised the estate agent to get it back out there! Oh well, thinking we had a sale made my sister clear a lot more of the stuff we were unsure about, meaning it will be much quicker when we are successful.
This all has nothing to do with the honeysuckle, but it is one of the decent plants growing in my Mum's garden!
