The town was declared a national cultural-historical site in 1985. Its main attraction is the Cathedral, begun in Romanesque style around 1230. It reflects an unusual mixture of styles: Gothic in the nave and the aisles, and Baroque in the its 18th-century towers. The polychrome statue in the high altar, called Nuestra Señora la Inglesa (the English Madonna) was rescued from St Paul's Cathedral in London during the Protestant Reformation of Henry VIII of England.

Organ in the Oostkerk in Middelburg.

 

The organ was only built more than 100 years after the church was finished. Only then was there enough money.

It took quite some effort before the organ sounded good.

Orgel in de Oostkerk in Middelburg.

 

Het orgel werd pas meer dan 100 jaar nadat de kerk gereed was gebouwd. Pas toen was er genoeg geld.

Het heeft nogal wat voeten in de aarde gehad voordat het orgel goed klonk.

The organ in Hallgrímskirkja, Reykjavik

In heaven (‘ in our native land’, as Aquinas always puts it), there will be the entirely satisfactory ‘sense of an object’, there will be light; but meanwhile, the only guarantee that it is God who is present to the self is that nothing else in particular is so present, and that no consistent set of words or ideas (about God or anything else) is at work. It is a darkness in which the only significant human act is the will’s movement of desire–the bare readiness to abide in hope and longing in the darkness, to be content with nothing else because anything else would be less than God.
