Cliffe Fort in Kent overlooks the entrance to the River Thames. Completed in 1870, construction was plagued with problems to do with the poor quality of ground, and the final design was smaller, housing ten guns in a mix of casemates and open barbettes as opposed to the planned thirteen. The fort could also accommodate up to 300 soldiers. Housing guns within casemates offered the greatest protection, and the casemates were granite faced and were fitted with iron shutters. A bank and ditch also protected the formidable fort on the exposed sea side.
Under the casemate level were two parallel tunnels, containing the usual features associated with ammunition storage.The lower levels are now badly flooded, while the upper levels and gun casemates are accessible.
By 1899 the fort was armed with two 12.5" RMLs (Rifled Muzzle Loaders), five 11" RMLs, two 4.7" guns or 6" guns in the open Battery, four 4 pdr QF (Quick Fire) guns in new concrete emplacements on the roof and a Brennan Torpedo launching station.
By the Second World War the forts role in coastal defence had diminished and it was primarily a heavy anti-aircraft battery, armed primarily with two 4" BL guns.
The fort was sold in the 1950's and has laid in a worsening state since then. Partly due to subsidence and the ingress of water.
The church Mary Help/Rescue (Mariahilfkirche) in the Styrian capital of Graz is a pilgrimage church and parish church of the parish Graz-Mariahilf in the deanery Graz-Center of the church administration Stadtkirche Graz. Attached to the church is the Minorite convent Graz.
History and design
In the 13th century settled monks of founded by St. Francis of Assisi Order of Minors in Graz at the place of today's Franciscan monastery, to which they had to cede in 1515 the square. After having spent many years provisionally, they were finally able after a donation by the princes of Eggenberg and Emperor Ferdinand II to settle at today's Mariahilf sqaure (now Lend district). The built in 1607 in Baroque style church, designed by Giovanni Pietro de Pomis, a pupil of Tintoretto, was completed in 1611. He built a towerless church according to Venetian models, which was closed towards the top with a triangular pediment in the manner of classical temple fronts. Through a conversion to plans by Josef Hueber the Church 1742-1744 received its present form with the two towers. Since 1783, the church serves as a parish church.
The gable above the church portal crowns today a Baroque statue of Archangel Michael which abuts Lucifer to hell. The other figures of the portal laterally above the middle door are the religious saints Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua and above the door the Virgin Mary.
The interior of the church looks plain and sober. The large dome over the presbytery was as well as the stucco decoration in 1769 removed. The thereafter by Josef Adam Molk created frescoes have also been removed (after not quite 100 years) and gave way to today's simple design. The image of the Virgin Mary on the high altar is considered a painterly masterpiece of Pietro de Pomis.
The sacristy, built 1636/37, has rich stucco ornaments (Johann Cajetan Androy attributed) and pews of the Regency style, at the sacristy is also located the chapel Bonaventurakapelle (Baptistery of St. Bonaventura, Triebenegg'sche crypt chapel), built from 1635 to 1640, with stucco in auricular style of Mathias Camin, Master of Mariazell, and a high Baroque altar in scagliola.
South of the church is the cloister of the Minorite monastery, which is followed by the treasury chapel. This one was created 1769-71 to accommodate votive offerings of pilgrims, but none of which have survived. It shows itself consistently late Baroque, the facilities, especially the altarpiece, is from the period of origin, walls and vault lunette caps adorn miracle scenes in tone-in-tone painting by Joseph Adam Knight of Mölk (1773)
Through another courtyard one accesses via a representative staircase the former summer refectory (the Minoritensaal), one of the most beautiful secular Baroque rooms in Graz.
Current use
To date, the monastery premises are inhabited by Friars Minor. The monastery houses also the Cultural Center with the Minorites, in which take place events in the fields of music, literature and visual arts.
In addition take place in the treasury chapel of the monastery services of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, a Rome-united church, and the Russian Orthodox church of Mary Protection in Graz as an ecumenical accommodation.
Interior and exterior of Mariahilferkirche in recent years have been skilfully restored.
Die Kirche Mariahilf (Mariahilfkirche) in der steirischen Landeshauptstadt Graz ist eine Wallfahrtskirche und Pfarrkirche der Pfarre Graz-Mariahilf im Dekanat Graz-Mitte der Stadtkirche Graz. An die Kirche angeschlossen ist das Minoritenkonvent Graz.
Geschichte und Gestaltung
Im 13. Jahrhundert siedelten sich Mönche des von Franz von Assisi gegründeten Minoritenordens in Graz am Platz des heutigen Franziskanerklosters an, an die sie den Platz 1515 abtreten mussten. Nach vielen provisorisch zugebrachten Jahren konnten sie sich schließlich nach einer Schenkung des Fürsten von Eggenberg und Kaiser Ferdinands II. am heutigen Mariahilfer Platz (im heutigen Bezirk Lend) ansiedeln. Die 1607 nach Plänen von Giovanni Pietro de Pomis, einem Schüler Tintorettos, in barockem Stil erbaute Kirche war 1611 fertiggestellt. Er errichtete eine nach venezianischen Vorbildern gestaltete turmlose Kirche, die nach oben mit einem Dreiecksgiebel in der Art klassischer Tempelfronten abgeschlossen war. Durch einen Umbau nach Plänen von Josef Hueber erhielt die Kirche 1742–1744 die heutige Gestalt mit den beiden Türmen. Seit 1783 dient die Kirche als Pfarrkirche.
Den Giebel über dem Kirchenportal krönt heute eine barocke Statue des Erzengels Michael, der Luzifer in die Hölle stößt. Die anderen Figuren des Portals zeigen seitlich oberhalb der mittleren Türe die Ordensheiligen Franz von Assisi und Antonius von Padua und oberhalb der Türe die Gottesmutter Maria.
Das Innere der Kirche wirkt schlicht und ernst. Die große Kuppel über dem Presbyterium wurde ebenso wie die Stuckdekoration 1769 entfernt. Die danach von Josef Adam Mölk geschaffenen Fresken wurden ebenfalls (nach nicht ganz 100 Jahren) entfernt und wichen der heutigen schlichten Gestaltung. Das Bild der Jungfrau Maria am Hochaltar gilt als malerisches Hauptwerk Pietro de Pomis'.
Die Sakristei, erbaut 1636/37, verfügt über reiche Stuckornamentik (Johann Cajetan Androy zugeschrieben,) und ein Gestühl des Régence-Stils, bei der Sakristei befindet sich auch die Bonaventurakapelle (Taufkapelle zum Hl. Bonaventura, Triebenegg’sche Gruftkapelle), 1635 bis 1640 erbaut, mit Stuck im Knorpelwerkstil von Mathias Camin, dem Meister von Mariazell, und einem hochbarocken Altar in Stuckmarmor.
Südlich der Kirche befindet sich der Kreuzgang des Minoritenklosters, an den die Schatzkammerkapelle anschließt. Diese wurde 1769–71 erstellt, um Votivgaben der Wallfahrern aufzunehmen, von denen sich aber keine erhalten haben. Sie zeigt sich geschlossen Spätbarock, die Ausstattung, im Besonderen die Altarretabel, ist aus der Entstehungszeit, Wände und Gewölbestichkappen zieren Wunderszenen in Ton-in-Ton-Malerei von Joseph Adam Ritter von Mölk (1773).
Durch einen weiteren Hof gelangt man über eine repräsentative Treppe in das ehemalige Sommerrefektorium (den Minoritensaal), einen der schönsten profanen Barockräume in Graz.
Heutige Nutzung
Bis heute werden die Klostergebäude von Minoritenbrüdern bewohnt. Im Kloster befindet sich auch das Kulturzentrum bei den Minoriten, in dem Veranstaltungen aus den Bereichen Musik, Literatur und bildende Kunst stattfinden.
Außerdem finden in der Schatzkammerkapelle des Klosters Gottesdienste der ukrainischen griechisch-katholischen Gemeinde, einer rom-unierten Gemeinde, und der russisch-orthodoxen Kirchengemeinde zu Mariä Schutz in Graz, als ökumenische Beherbergung, statt.
Inneres und Äußeres der Mariahilferkirche wurde in den letzten Jahren aufwändig restauriert.
