Prague, Czech Republic.

At the top of every hour throngs of tourists from all over the world gather in front of the Prague's Old Town Hall to enjoy a fascinating mechanical performance which in the Middle Ages was considered one of the wonders of the world. For over 600 years the clock has been one of the greatest treasures of the city and still fascinates people with its procession of Apostles, moving statues and visualization of time like no other instrument in the world. The clock occupies the south wall of Prague's Old City Hall.

The Protestant-Lutheran Petrikirche is a neo-Gothic church building in the Kleefeld district of Hanover. It is the seat of the superintendent of the prelacy Hannover-East. Together with the Nikodemus church, it forms a community.

History

In 1873 a first chapel was erected by Conrad Wilhelm Hase in Kleefeld. Until 1883 the chapel congregation belonged to the Garden church in the Marien street of Hanover. After that, it became an independent church community and decided to build a church of its own.

The church building with a 59 m high church tower was built from 1899 on according to designs by government building officer Rudolph Eberhard Hillebrand. In today's Petrikirche, a first service was celebrated in 1902. In 1927 the town hall was built on the grounds of the old chapel.

During the heavy air attack on Hanover on 9 October 1943 the church hit by incendiary bombs burned out. After the reconstruction in 1953, regional bishop Johannes Lilje consecrated the new house of God on 3 October 1953. In 1963 the tower was finished. In 1993 the church got a new annex. Since September 1, 2005, Thomas Höflich has been a pastor at the Petrikirche and superintendent of the Hanover East prelacy. Monthly worship takes place in English.

Organ

The organ was built in 1957 by the organ manufacturer Brothers Hillebrand Organ Building. The instrument has 39 stops on three manuals and pedal. The key actions are mechanical, the stop actions are electrical.

Petrikirche (Kleefeld)

Die evangelisch-lutherische Petrikirche ist ein Kirchenbau im neugotischen Stil im hannoverschen Stadtteil Kleefeld. Sie ist Sitz der Superintendentur des Amtsbereichs Hannover-Ost. Zusammen mit der Nikodemuskirche bildet sie eine Gemeinde.

Geschichte

1873 wurde von Conrad Wilhelm Hase in Kleefeld eine erste Kapelle errichtet. Bis zum Jahr 1883 gehörte die Kapellengemeinde zur Gartenkirche in der Marienstraße von Hannover. Danach wurde sie eine eigenständige Kirchengemeinde und beschloss, eine eigene Kirche zu errichten.

Der Kirchenbau mit einem 59 m hohen Kirchturm entstand ab 1899 nach Entwürfen von Baurat Rudolph Eberhard Hillebrand. In der heutigen Petrikirche konnte 1902 ein erster Gottesdienst gefeiert werden. 1927 wurde auf dem Gelände der alten Kapelle das Gemeindehaus errichtet.

Bei dem schweren Luftangriff auf Hannover am 9. Oktober 1943 brannte die von Brandbomben getroffene Kirche aus. Nach dem Wiederaufbau 1953 weihte Landesbischof Johannes Lilje am 3. Oktober 1953 das neue Gotteshaus. Im Jahr 1963 wurde der Turm fertiggestellt. 1993 bekam die Kirche einen neuen Anbau. Seit dem 1. September 2005 ist Thomas Höflich Pastor an der Petrikirche und Superintendent des Amtsbereiches Hannover-Ost. Monatlich finden Gottesdienste in englischer Sprache statt.

Orgel

Die Orgel wurde 1957 von der Orgelbaufirma Gebrüder Hillebrand Orgelbau erbaut. Das Instrument hat 39 Register auf drei Manualen und Pedal. Die Spieltrakturen sind mechanisch, die Registertrakturen sind elektrisch.

The Alfa Romeo 105/115 series Coupés were a range of cars manufactured from 1963 until 1977. They were the successors to the celebrated Giulietta Sprint coupé and used a shortened floorpan from the Giulia Berlina car. These appealing cars were made in a wide variety of models over a period of 13 years, so they provide a lot of material for study by Alfa Romeo enthusiasts. The basic body shape shared by all models was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro for Bertone. It was one of his first major projects for Bertone, and borrowed heavily from his earlier design for the Alfa Romeo 2000 Sprint/2600 Sprint. The balance of glass and metal, the influence of the shape of the front and rear glass on the shape of the cabin, and the flat grille with incorporated headlamps were groundbreaking styling features for the era.All models feature the four cylinder, all-light-alloy Alfa Romeo Twin Cam engine in various cubic capacities from 1290 cc to 1962 cc. All versions of this engine fitted to the 105 series coupes featured twin carburettors. Competition models featured cylinder heads with twin spark plugs. Common to all models was also a 5-speed manual transmission and disc brakes on all four wheels. The rear suspension uses a beam axle with coil springs. Air conditioning and a limited slip rear differential were optional on the later models. The 105 series coupés featured the GT (Gran Turismo) model description, which was common to all models in one form or another.The various different models in this range can be considered in two broad categories.On one hand were the various Gran Turismos and Gran Turismo Veloces. These were meant to be the most sporting cars in the Alfa Romeo range and sold very well to enthusiastic motorists around the world. The first model available was the Giulia Sprint GT (1963) which evolved into the Giulia Sprint GT Veloce (1965), the 1750 GTV (1968) and the 2000 GTV (1972–1976), with engines increasing in cubic capacity from 1570 cc (Giulia Sprint GT/GTV) through 1779 cc (1750 GTV) to 1962 cc (2000 GTV).On the other hand was the GT Junior range, which featured engines with smaller cubic capacities. GT Juniors sold in great numbers to people who wanted a sporting, stylish car that handled well, but either did not require the maximum in engine power, or could not afford the taxation on larger engine capacities in some markets - most notably, Alfa Romeo's home Italian market. Junior models began with the first GT 1300 Junior in 1966. The GT 1300 Junior continued until 1976 with the 1290 cc engine and various modifications incorporating features from the evolution of the GT's and GTV's. From 1972 a GT 1600 Junior model was also available, with the 1570 cc engine.Both categories were used to derive GTA ("Allegerita") models, which were specifically intended for competition homologation in their respective engine size classes. The GTA's featured extensive modifications for racing, so they were priced much higher than the standard models and sold in much smaller numbers. Practically all GTA's made were used in competition, where they had a long and successful history in various classes and category. These models included the Giulia Sprint GTA and GTA 1300 Junior.The 2000 GTV (Tipo: 105.21) was introduced in 1971 together with the 2000 Berlina sedan and 2000 Spider “Fastback” (Series 2). The 2000 range was the replacement for the 1750 range. Once again the engine was rationalized throughout the range. The engine displacement was increased to 1962 cc with a change of the bore and stroke to 84 mm × 88.5 mm. Oil and radiator capacities remained unchanged. The engine produced 132 PS (97 kW; 130 hp) at 5500 rpm.The interior trim was also changed, with the most notable differences being the introduction of a separate instrument cluster, instead of the gauges installed in the dash panel in earlier cars.Externally the 2000 GTV is most easily distinguished by the following features:Grille with horizontal chrome bars, featuring protruding blocks forming the familiar Alfa heart in outline; Smaller hubcaps with exposed wheel nuts; Optional aluminum alloy wheels of the same size as the standard 5. 1/2J × 14 steel items, styled to the "turbina" design first seen on the alloy wheels of the Alfa Romeo Montreal. "Turbina" refers to the wheel's resemblance to a jet engine inlet; The larger rear light clusters first fitted to United States market 1750 GTV's were standard for all markets on the 2000 GTV.The 2000 GTV is most easily distinguished by its different grille. From 1974 on, this became standard on the GT 1300 Junior and GT 1600 Junior as well when the 105 Series coupe models were rationalized and these external features became common to post-1974 GT 1300 Junior and GT 1600 Junior models, with only few distinguishing features marking the difference between models.37,459 2000 GTVs were made before production ended.

Obviously new old stock. The six upper indicators are the same type of those used in aircrafts. The missing center instrument is probably a speedometer.

These guys were playing some amazing Jazz funk in one of the plazas. As I knelt down to take some pictures, they all turned to me and gave me a thumbs up!

Another of the shots taken in the art studio at Appleby College... These instruments are all past their functional life in making music, but their forms can combine to create a new kind of art.
