St. Patrick's Cathedral is a decorated Catholic cathedral in the Midtown Manhattan neighborhood of New York City. It is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York as well as a parish church. The cathedral occupies a city block bounded by Fifth Avenue, Madison Avenue, 50th Street, and 51st Street, directly across from Rockefeller Center. Designed by James Renwick Jr., it is the largest Gothic Revival Catholic cathedral in North America.
The cathedral was constructed starting in 1858 to accommodate the growing Archdiocese of New York and to replace St. Patrick's Old Cathedral. Work was halted in the early 1860s during the American Civil War; the cathedral was completed in 1878 and dedicated on May 25, 1879.

Die Pfarrkirche St. Nikolaus ist ein katholisches Kirchengebäude in der Stadt Scheer im Landkreis Sigmaringen in Baden-Württemberg.
Die Kirche mit gotischen Astkreuz wurde im 14. Jahrhundert auf einem der letzten Kalkfelsen des Weißjura, bevor die Donau in einer weiten Schleife die Schwäbische Alb verlässt, erbaut. Im 18. Jahrhundert erhielt sie dann ein Rokokokleid.
Die Kirche besitzt bedeutende Kunstschätze, wie etwa das Büstenreliquiar des Heiligen Wunibald und ein Sandsteinepitaph. Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer schuf die Stuckdekorationen und die Fresken wurden von Joseph Esperlin (1707–1775) gemalt.
BNSF 2648 takes charge of the BNCP transfer as they duck under the Midway Sub. A nice layer of ice over the track made for a neat reflection. That man on the left got spooked up by the train and came running of the tunnel when he saw the train approaching.
St. Petri in Lübeck, first mentioned in 1170, is the cultural and university church of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck. After several reconstructions, St. Petri was given its current architectural form as a five-aisled Gothic hall church in the 15th century and has been a Protestant church since the Reformation in Lübeck in 1530.
In March 1942, the church was badly damaged by a British bombing raid and burned down completely. After restoration, St. Petri was only reopened as a church for the whole city in 1987 and is now a place for art and culture, for science and discussion. During Advent, an arts and crafts Christmas market is held in St. Petri. From the tower of the church you have an overview of the whole of Lübeck's old town.

St. Petri zu Lübeck, erstmals 1170 erwähnt, ist die Kultur- und Hochschulkirche der Hansestadt Lübeck. Nach mehrfachem Umbau bekam St. Petri im 15. Jahrhundert die heutige architektonische Gestalt als fünfschiffige gotische Hallenkirche und ist seit der Reformation in Lübeck im Jahr 1530 eine evangelische Kirche.
Im März 1942 wurde die Kirche durch einen britischen Bombenangriff stark beschädigt und brannte vollkommen aus. Nach der Restaurierung wurde St. Petri erst 1987 als Kirche für die ganze Stadt wiedereröffnet und ist heute ein Ort für Kunst und Kultur, für Wissenschaft und Diskussion. In der Adventszeit findet in St. Petri jeweils ein Kunsthandwerker-Weihnachtsmarkt statt. Vom Turm der Kirche hat man einen Überblick über die ganze Lübecker Altstadt.

Perfect morning to photograph something crossing what I think of as the Mickey Mouse lift bridge over the St. Croix River in Prescott, Wisconsin. BNSF 5863 leads mixed freight over the bridge at the confluence of the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers along the former CB&Q. Another spot I have not shot in many years, mostly because I swing through here later in the day when the sun swings to the west. I think of Prescott as a morning photo spot.
Die dreischiffige St.-Marien-Kirche in Stralsund gilt als ein Meisterwerk der Spätgotik und war von 1625 bis zur Zerstörung des damals über 150 Meter hohen Kirchturm, durch einen Blitzschlag, im Jahre 1647 das höchste Gebäude der Welt.

Die römisch-katholische St.-Hedwigs-Kathedrale (Eigenschreibweise St. Hedwigs-Kathedrale) ist ein Baudenkmal am Bebelplatz im Berliner Ortsteil Mitte und Teil des Forum Fridericianum. Sie ist die Bischofskirche des Erzbistums Berlin und war bis Anfang 2021 Pfarrkirche der Domgemeinde St. Hedwig, in deren Eigentum die Kathedrale bis 2016 stand. Die ranghöchste römisch-katholische Kirche in Berlin gilt auch als historisch bedeutendste der römisch-katholischen Kirchen der Stadt.
Der Rundbau wurde ab 1747 im Auftrag von Friedrich dem Großen nach Plänen von Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff im Stil des Friderizianischen Rokoko errichtet. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg ausgebrannt, wurde die Kathedrale 1952–1963 nach Plänen von Hans Schwippert im Stil der Nachkriegsmoderne wiederhergestellt. Von 2018 bis Ende November 2024 war sie wegen Sanierung und Umbaus geschlossen; die Gottesdienste fanden währenddessen in der St.-Josephs-Kirche in Berlin-Wedding statt. Der neue Altar wurde am 1. November 2023, dem 250. Jahrestag der ursprünglichen Kirchweihe, geweiht. Die Wiedereröffnung der umgestalteten Kathedrale fand am Christkönigsfest, dem 24. November 2024, statt.

Ovingham, Northumberland
Ovingham's parish church of St Mary dates to the Saxon period, with major rebuilding in the 13th century and again in the Victorian period.
St Mary's church was the site of historic drama in 1534, Henry VIII's church commissioners, sent to dissolve Hexham Abbey were challenged from the top of the church tower by the abbot, dressed in armour. The abbot was hanged for his impudence, ostensibly for wearing armour, which was forbidden to a cleric.

I composed this photograph during an early morning walk in downtown St. George, Utah. It is of a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
After the death of Joseph Smith, whom they considered to be a prophet, Mormon pioneers migrated west. They were later directed by his successor, Brigham Young, to settle in southwestern Utah, where this temple was completed in March 1877.
The temple was built over swampy land. Workers created a dry foundation by using a cannon (with a debated origin), which they lifted thirty feet to use as a pile driver for compacting the foundation. For more than six years, members willingly contributed to the temple, which included daily travel to the work site, and dedicating one day out of ten as a form of tithing labor.
Brigham Young, the church president, considered the completed cupola too short. Two years after he died, a lightning strike razed the tower, and the reconstructed height of the tower was doubled to his desired height. It is the oldest temple in active use by the church.
