Built between 1723-6 for Emperor Charles VI this Baroque library contains 200,000 books and many other treasures including globes, statues and frescos. Not sure its the right place to read as there are just too many competing visual pleasures.

ALSO: It's probably the best pancake super I've ever been too.

The ceiling of the New Century Hall music venue in Manchester has a number of these large arrays of colour changing lights with acoustic diffusers. But there was an odd one out.

So far, 2023 is not my year. Woke up to part of the garage ceiling caved in. Apparently, it wasn't water damage or anything, just an old ceiling that finally gave out.

L'abbatiale Saint-Austremoine est une abbatiale française de style roman auvergnat située à Issoire, dans le département du Puy-de-Dôme.

L'abbatiale Saint-Austremoine est une ancienne abbatiale bénédictine construite durant le premier tiers du XIIe siècle et plus précisément vers 1130, ce qui en fait la deuxième des cinq églises majeures d'Auvergne.

Elle est dédiée à Austremoine de Clermont ou Stremonius, premier évêque de Clermont et évangélisateur de l'Auvergne à la fin du IIIe siècle.

C'est l'une des plus grandes églises de Basse Auvergne, 65m de long sur 17m de haut. Cette abbatiale construite en arkose (grès blond), correspond au plan-type des églises de pèlerinage, avec un chevet à déambulatoire et chapelles rayonnantes sur crypte abritant la chasse du XIIe siècle de St Austremoine.

Elle est remarquable par l'étagement de ses volumes et la richesse du décor du chevet : colonnettes, chapiteaux, modillons, mosaïques à motifs géométriques, médaillons sculptés des signes du zodiaque, etc.

Elle possède une surprenante polychromie intérieure et de magnifiques chapiteaux historiés (cycle de la Passion et de la Résurrection du Christ) dans le chœur.
