ENG: Summer holiday impressions. ☻
You can see the general view of the dome and the dome fresco in the interior.
The Neumünster (also Neumünster St. Johannes Evangelist and St. Johannes the Baptist) is the collegiate church of the former collegiate monastery Neumünster in the old town of Würzburg. It is located at the place where Kilian, Totnan and Kolonat allegedly died a martyr's death.
The octagonal, double-skin dome is crowned by a lantern. The baroque west building of the romantic church was built between 1712 and 1716 by Joseph Greising. The dome fresco by Nikolaus Gottfried Stuber, completed in 1736, shows the veneration of the Holy Trinity by saints and angels on a total area of approximately 550 m². The large inscription panel on the west side names the canon Johann Bernhard Beyer as the donor as well as the date of completion of the painting in 1736. During the bombing of Würzburg on 19 February 1945 and the bombing raid on Würzburg on 16 March 1945, the dome and the dome fresco were seriously damaged. Therefore, we see today a restored and renovated dome, but it still looks very attractive to the viewer.

Zu sehen ist die Gesamtansicht der Kuppel und des Kuppelfreskos im Innenraum.
Das Neumünster (auch Neumünster St. Johannes Evangelist und St. Johannes der Täufer) ist die Stiftskirche des ehemaligen Kollegiatsstifts Neumünster in der Würzburger Altstadt. Es befindet sich an der Stelle, wo Kilian, Totnan und Kolonat angeblich den Märtyrertod starben.
Der oktogonale, doppelschalige Kuppelbau wird von einer Laterne bekrönt. Der barocke Westbau der romantischen Kirche wurde in den Jahren 1712 bis 1716 von Joseph Greising durchgeführt. Das 1736 fertiggestellte Kuppelfresko von Nikolaus Gottfried Stuber zeigt die Verehrung der Heiligen Dreifaltigkeit durch Heilige und Engel auf einer Gesamtfläche von ca. 550 m². Die große Schrifttafel auf der Westseite nennt den Stiftsherrn Johann Bernhard Beyer als Stifter sowie die Jahreszahl der Vollendung des Gemäldes 1736. Bei den Bombardierungen Würzburgs am 19. Februar 1945 und dem Bombenangriff auf Würzburg am 16. März 1945 wurden die Kuppel und das Kuppelfresko schwer beschädigt. Daher sehen wir heute eine Restaurierte und Renovierte Kuppel, diese aber heutzutage immer noch sehr anmutend auf den Betrachter wirkt.

The Jesuit Church (Jesuitenkirche) of Lucerne is the first large sacral Baroque church in Switzerland; constructed in 1666 by Father Christoph Vogler for the Jesuits.
The vault was redecorated in the mid-18th century. The onion topped towers were not completed until 1893.The original vestments of Brother Klaus, a famous Swiss patron, are stored in the inner chapel.
Please see much better view in large.
This church was built between 1737 – 1741 and belongs to Rot an der Rot, a community in the Upper Swabian.
The frescos were painted by J.M. Biehle.
Johann Georg Reusch maufactured the high altar also between 1737 – 1741.
Today there is a graveyard around this sacral building, so the church is used as graveyard church.
The landmark of the old mining village with interesting spindle-shaped urbanism is the Lutheran Church located on a low hill at the upper end of the village called Koceľovce. The church is an almost intactly preserved Gothic building from the first half of the 14th century, originally dedicated to St. Bartholomew.
The single-nave space with a polygonal chancel, a sacristy on the north side and a high tower on a square plan in the west, which turns into an octogon on the upper floors, is covered by a high gabled roof with shingles. The roofing of the tower, with an atypical metal Art Nouveau helmet, dates from the beginning of the 20th century. The nave is vaulted with classicist Theresian vaults instead of the original beamed ceiling, which is stylishly followed by an equally vaulted brick porch. During the last third of the 14th century, the polygonal chancel was built and vaulted with a cross rib vault. The stylistic purity of the church is emphasized by high windows divided by profiled bars and tracery and a system of supporting pillars of the chancel. The current southern entrance to the church was opened during the restoration in the 2nd half of the 18th century, it is closed by a Gothic door with decorative fittings, which were transferred here from the original entrance portal in the tower. Another Gothic door with rich wrought iron decoration is in the portal to the sacristy. This interesting wrought iron door also became the logo of the church.
The Roman Catholic wooden church of St. Francis of Assisi, made of red spruce, was built at the end of the 15th century in the Gothic style. It is situated on a small elevation in the centre of the village of Hervartov in the Bardejov district. Since 2008 it has been included in the list of UNESCO monuments.
It is the oldest and one of the best preserved wooden churches in Slovakia. The church is enclosed by a stone wall with pilasters, which gives visitors the impression of a small fortress. The sacral building consists of a polygonal sanctuary, a nave, a sacristy and an undercroft, which has been modified to create a granary. The church also includes a bell tower.
While the exterior of the oldest wooden church on the Slovak side of the Carpathian Mountains has remained unchanged, the interior has undergone several modifications due to the Reformation, the Recatholization and the Baroque style. Surface compositions of geometric shapes as well as scenes from the lives of saints or moral scenes make up the rich decoration of the interior walls of the Hervart church.
ENG: The remains of the Ringer Colonnade at the City Palace
You can see the colonnade, the city castle and in the background the church of St. Nicholas.
At Steubenplatz the Marstall was originally completely connected by the Ringerkolonnade with the west wing of the Stadtschloss, but on the side of the Marstall one half is missing today in favour of the tram line running there. This colonnade, built in 1745/46 according to a design by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff, consisted of 14 pairs of columns and formed the boundary between the pleasure garden and the town. The total of 12 sculptures depicted six groups of wrestlers, five fencers and one slinger. The Wrestling Colonnade was destroyed about half its length during the British bombing of Potsdam on 14 April 1945.
GER: Die Reste der Ringerkolonnade am Stadtschloss
Zu sehen ist die Kolonnade, das Stadtschloss sowie im Hintergrund die St. Nikolai-Kirche.
Am Steubenplatz war der Marstall durch die Ringerkolonnade mit dem Westflügel des Stadtschlosses ursprünglich vollständig verbunden, auf der Seite des Marstalls fehlt heute jedoch eine Hälfte zugunsten der dort verkehrenden Straßenbahnlinie. Diese 1745/46 nach einem Entwurf von Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff errichtete Kolonnade bestand aus 14 Säulenpaaren und bildete die Abgrenzung des Lustgartens zur Stadt. Die insgesamt 12 Bildwerke stellten sechs Gruppen Ringer, fünf Fechter und einen Schleuderer dar. Die Ringerkolonnade ist am 14. April 1945 beim britischen Bombenangriff auf Potsdam auf ungefähr der Hälfte ihrer Länge zerstört worden.
The collegiate church of the monastery in Polling in Upper Bavaria was rebuilt between 1416 and 1420 as a Gothic hall church after a fire destroyed the previous building.
The interior was redesigned in 1625 by Jörg Schmuzer from Wessobrunn with early Baroque stucco. It was one of the first Baroque redesigns of a Gothic church in Bavaria.
As part of the redesign, the choir was extended by three bays, and further additions followed. Chapels were added to the side aisles and a surrounding gallery was built.
Later, in the middle of the 18th century under Provost Franz Töpsl, the interior was partially redesigned again in the Rococo style.
The center of the church is the Holy Cross, which is located in the high altar.
According to legend, Duke Tassilo III of Bavaria chased a doe while hunting. This doe dug a cross out of the ground. For Tassilo, this was a sign to found a monastery at this location.
Biru ‘e Concas è un eccezionale sito archeologico che contiene un raggruppamento di menhir fra i più importanti dell’intera area mediterranea. Sono circa 200 monoliti, alcuni isolati, altri in piccoli gruppi, altri ancora disposti in circoli o allineati fino a un numero di 20 menhir. Molti giacciono sul terreno, interi o spezzati, fuori dalla loro posizione originaria.
La visita di questo luogo mi ha veramente impressionato, per l’atmosfera di sacralità che le sue antichissime pietre riescono a trasmettere, ma anche perché si estende in mezzo ad alberi secolari, fra conifere, castagni e nocciole, in un ambiente naturale di emozionante bellezza.
(v. altre foto di Biru ‘e Concas nello stesso album “Pedras fittas, i menhir di Sardegna”).

Gustelnica - Wooden chapel of St. Antony of Padua
www.tzzz.hr/en/visit-county/cultural-heritage/most-valuab...
Construction of the school church in Amberg began in 1696, based on plans by master builder Wolfgang Dientzenhofer. This church was originally built for the Salesian convent.
It was consecrated in 1699 by the Regensburg Auxiliary Bishop, Albert Ernst Graf von Wartenberg.
As early as 1758, the church was expanded, and at the same time, it also received its Rococo furnishings.
Anton Landes, nephew and student of Johann Baptist Zimmermann, carried out the stucco work.
The church interior was frescoed by Gottfried Bernhard Götz. He also painted all the altarpieces.
The remaining furnishings were created by craftsmen and masters from Amberg. One of them was Franz Joachim Schlott. The high altar, pulpit, confessionals, and organ front all came from his workshop. The side altars are works by Johann Peter Hirsch and Johann Wolfgang Eder.
The organ in this church also underwent several modifications and new constructions. The first organ, dating from 1760, came from the organ workshop of Johann Konrad Funtsch from Amberg. Today, an instrument by Hubert Sandtner from Dillingen an der Donau is located in the Rococo façade.
Today, the church is part of the Dr. Johanna Decker Schools, a private grammar school and secondary school for girls.
The school church is considered one of the most important Rococo churches in Germany.
The Chapelle Saint-Pierre (Saint Peter's Chapel) dates from the sixteenth century. Used as a storeroom for local fishermen's nets and equipment for most of the 19th and early part of the 20th century, it was eventually restored in 1957. The interior of the chapel was decorated by the artist Jean Cocteau with many paintings/murals. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to take pictures of them.
Villefranche-sur-Mer is located on the French Riviera between the city of Nice and Monaco.

Tomb of Christopher Columbus is held by four allegorical figures representing the four kingdoms of Spain during Columbus’ life, Castille, Aragon, Navara, and Leon. The tomb was installed 1899 by Arturo Melida.
He travelled a lot not only in in his life but also after death. He died in 1506; the year Seville cathedral was completed, and was first interred in Valladolid. His bones were then moved to Seville. In 1542 they travelled across the Atlantic to Santo Domingo where his son had been a governor. The French took over Santo Domingo in 1795 and Columbus found himself on the move again, to Havana. After the Spanish American War, in 1898, Cuba became independent and the bones returned to Seville during the Cuban revolution in 1902 to finally come to rest in the monumental Late Romantic style tomb on display today.
The landmark of Beuerberg, a district of Eurasburg in the Upper Bavarian district of Bad Tölz - Wolfratshausen, is the monastery and the monastery church of St. Peter and Paul. The monastery was founded in 1121.
In 1628 the nave and the southern aisle of the Romanesque porch of the church collapsed. The reason was previous damage, probably from the master builder Bartholomäus Steinle overloading the nave with stucco. A new building was necessary. Provost Mayr sent a request for help to Elector Maximilian. But the court refused to help directly, but sent Heinrich Schön the Elder and master mason Isaak Pader the Elder as assessors. Under the latter, the new building was completed in 1630 (year above the choir arch). However, the church was not consecrated until 1635. There are eleven altars in the church. These early Baroque treasures have been preserved to this day.
The high altar comes from the previous building, but is being rebuilt in a different form. The altarpiece shows the Deposition from the Cross, painted in 1645 by Elias Greither the Elder.
The pulpit dates from 1782 and already shows early Classicist allusions. The organ facade is also an early Classicist work.
The gleaming white church interior is an example of early Baroque architecture with wall pillars as altar niches, and the stucco also shows early Baroque forms.
In August 1913, the foundation stone was laid for the new church in Schonach in the Black Forest, which was consecrated by the Archbishop of Freiburg in May 1922. However, the interior was not completed until the 1950s, the new organ was consecrated in 1954 and Josef Braun from Wangen completed the painting of the church in 1956/57. Eduard Kuner from Schonach stuccoed the church in the Baroque style.
The reason for the new building was that the old church had become too small, i.e. a larger church was needed.
In 1906, the first plans for the new building were drawn up, which were approved in 1912. Only the Gothic tower of the previous church remained. The basement of the tower was the former choir, now this is the entrance area.
Angelo Valentin, a wood sculptor from Offenburg, made the high altar. The high altar painting is much older, but it is unknown who painted it. The neo-baroque organ facade is also by Valentin. It contains an organ by the Freiburg organ builder Willi Dold.

Behind the north-facing wall of the Chapel of the Black Madonna is the Chapel of Blessed Luke Belludi, a disciple and companion of St. Anthony.
After the Saint’s death Luke continued his apostolate, and it was probably due to his insistence that the Basilica was built.
The beautiful altar dates from the 13th century and is surround ed with frescoes by Giusto de’ Menabuoi (1382). They depict:
Our Lady Enthroned Among Franciscan Saints (centre);
two episodes from The Intercession of Blessed Luke (to the sides of the al tar);
in other sections some episodes drawn from the Golden Legend concerning the Apostles Phillip and James can be admired.
The mortal remains of Blessed Luke are kept in the ark that forms the altar table.
Crucifixion Group - You can find it on the end of the northern (left) nave of the church, where it encloses this entire temple space.
It is a three-dimensional figural work, where the central wooden cross with the sculpture of the Crucified Christ is flanked on the sides by free-standing statues of the mourning Virgin Mary and St. John the Evangelist.
This sculptural composition forms a historical superstructure of one of the side altars of the church.
Church of St. John of Dukla and Monastery of Bernadine monks - the church with two towers was built between 1761 and 1764 in the late baroque style. The temple was extended from 1890 to 1902 when a chapel of St. John of Dukla was built and the main nave was enlarged. Also monastery building was added. The interior dates back to the turn of the 19th century. The paintings of Tadeusz Popiel present scenes from life of St. John of Dukla. There is a silver coffin with relics of St. John. Pope John Paul II came to Dukla on 9th of August, a day before the canonization event and he spent a night in the monastery
Retrochoir of the Roman Catholic cathedral of Seville, Seville, Spain. This wonderful Baroque style retrochoir is work of Miguel de Zumárraga and was finalized in 1635. It was constructed with precious materials like marmor or jasper and it's decorated with bas-relieves and bronce busts. The gothic painting in the middle shows the Virgin of Los Remedios, very popular in the Reconquista times and still very devoted in Spain
A jewel among churches - the wooden Church of St. St. Nicholas is one of the oldest and most beautiful wooden churches in Slovakia. The three-part log building with a richly ornamented shingled roof and three towers was built in 1658. In 2008 it was entered in the UNESCO World Heritage List together with seven other wooden churches from the area of Slovak Carpathians.
The sacral monument is a part of a unique complex located in the center of Bodružal in the Svidník district. In addition to the temple, it also consists of a separate bell tower, an adjacent cemetery and a wooden fence with a shingled roof and an entrance gate covered by a conical roof.
The three church towers symbolizing the Holy Trinity will catch your attention for sure. The highest tower houses the bells, which were used for military purposes at the beginning of the World War I - the inhabitants of the village replaced them in the second half of the 1920s. The oldest preserved bell features the inscription “1759”.
