One of the most beautiful village churches in Bavaria is in Gabelbach, a municipality in the Augsburg district.
The church was built between 1737 and 1738 under the direction of the master builder Johannes Paulus. The consecration takes place in 1746.
The plasterers Ignaz and Johann Finsterwalder and, probably, Johann Georg Wolcker for the painting are responsible for the splendid furnishings.
On the west gallery is the oldest organ still in use in the Augsburg district from 1609. It is a work by Marx Günzer. Originally built for the Barfüsser Church in Augsburg, it came to Gabelbach in 1758, purchased for 250 guilders by pastor Dominikus Paulus.
Among the beautiful sacral sights we can undoubtedly include the Greek Catholic wooden Church of the Protection of the Holy Mother of God from 1770, which stands in the mountain village of Miroľa in the northeastern region of Slovakia.
It has a characteristic log structure and a three-part outer and inner division. The interior is decorated with iconostasis and altar. In the sanctuary, there is the icon of the archangel Michael and the icon of the Mother of God, Virgin Hodegetria with praise located. Liturgical objects are found in the anteroom that were revealed in the individual rebuildings of the temple. Especially the rare raincoat, probably from the 17th century, is worth noticing.
A special chapter is the rare books used in religious services in the Church-Slavic language. The temple has been repaired several times, most recently a complete reconstruction in 2005-2008 has been carried out. As well as with other wooden churches, even here stands a wooden entrance gate with a low shingled roof in front of the church.
The monastery church of Schäftlarn in Upper Bavaria is one of the most successful late Baroque sacred buildings in Bavaria.
In 1733 it was built according to the plans of the builder François de Cuvilliés the Elder. Ä. started with the construction of the new church. But in 1740 the work was stopped, on the one hand the costs were too high for the convent, on the other hand also because of the Austrian War of Succession.
It was not until 1750 that work was resumed under the master builders Johann Georg Gunetzrhainer and his brother-in-law Johann Michael Fischer. In 1753 the construction is finished and the interior design can begin. From 1754 - 7156 Johann Baptist Zimmermann painted the frescoes and carried out the stucco work.
Altars, putti and the pulpit were made by Johann Baptist Straub between 1756 and 1764.
The church in Monheim was built in 1509. It is a late Gothic hall church. Between 1700 and 1740 it was redesigned in Baroque style. In 1803 the five altars from the Kaisheim monastery were acquired. In 1721 Jakob Eck from Eichstätt made the stucco pulpit.
P1130065c - St. Stephen Church, Istanbul / Turkey
For the construction of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church of St. Stephen in the years 1893-96 five hundred tons of iron and steel were installed. It stands on the Golden Horn in Istanbul.

The fortified early Gothic church from the first half of the 14th century was built on the site of an older building. In the 15th century it was fortified with a wall and a wooden bell tower was built on the grounds in 1657. The single-nave space with a square-ended presbytery and a built-in sacristy has a painted cassette ceiling from 1758, the presbytery is characteristic by its rib vault. The mural paintings date back to the 60s of the 14th century and the creator of at least a part of them is the Master of Ochtiná presbytery. These interior frescoes were discovered in the early 20th century by I. Huszka who was restoring them in 1905. All the paintings, interior and exterior ones, were completely restored between 1983 and 1985 by J. Josefík, L. Székely and I. Žuch.
Within the almost intact medieval church, the murals have a uniquely strong impression and informative value, thanks to their scale and complexity of preservation. Thematically they focus on individual scenes from the Marian and the Passion cycle, but they do not have a uniform concept unlike the upper belt on the nave’s northern wall with a complete depiction of the St. Ladislaus legend.

The Nikolaikirche (official: City- und parish church St. Nikolai) is the oldest and largest church in Leipzig and next to the Thomaskirche the most famous church of the city. The reconstruction and furnishing of the interior of the Nikolai Church is an important creation of classicism. The appearance has remained almost unchanged to this day since about 1797. The first mention and the construction of the church was built in the Romanesque style from 1165 after the award of city and market rights to Leipzig.
I mention two small characteristics here still. Although there would be certainly numerous stories to tell.
The reformer Martin-Luther! On 25 May 1539 the reformation was started in Leipzig by the sermons of the reformers Justus Jonas the Elder and Martin Luther. The church thus became the seat of the first Superintendent of the city Johann Pfeffinger.
The musician Bach! In the Nikolaikirche Johann Sebastian Bach performed numerous of his cantatas and oratorios for the first time with the Thomanerchor, including the St. John Passion, his most extensive work to date, on Good Friday, 7 April 1724.
GER: Zu sehen ist das Deckengemälde von Adam Friedrich Oeser.
Die Nikolaikirche (offiziell: Stadt- und Pfarrkirche St. Nikolai) ist die älteste und größte Kirche in Leipzig sowie neben der Thomaskirche die bekannteste Kirche der Stadt. Die Umgestaltung und Ausstattung des Innenraumes der Nikolaikirche stellt eine bedeutende Schöpfung des Klassizismus dar. Das bis heute fast unveränderte aussehen besteht seit etwa 1797. Die erste Erwähnung und der Bau der Kirche wurde ab 1165 nach der Verleihung des Stadt- und Marktrechtes an Leipzig im romanischen Stil erbaut.
Zwei kleine Besonderheiten erwähne ich hier noch. Obwohl es bestimmt zahlreiche Geschichten zu erzählen gäbe.
Der Reformator Martin-Luther! Am 25. Mai 1539 wurde durch die Predigten der Reformatoren Justus Jonas der Ältere und Martin Luther die Reformation in Leipzig begonnen. Die Kirche wurde damit Sitz des ersten Superintendenten der Stadt Johann Pfeffinger.
Der Musiker Bach! In der Nikolaikirche führte Johann Sebastian Bach zahlreiche seiner Kantaten und Oratorien zum ersten Mal mit dem Thomanerchor auf, darunter auch die Johannespassion, sein bis dahin umfangreichstes Werk, am Karfreitag, dem 7. April 1724.
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 first mention of a church in Durach can be found in the Kempten calendar in 1390.
In 1527 the church was enlarged.
In 1748 the church was expanded again and in 1754 it was given its current appearance through a baroque design.
In 1871, large pieces of the ceiling fell, which required a complete renovation.
In 1880 a new high altar is purchased.
The builder Pietro Francesco Carlone was commissioned by the Jesuits of Passau to build a new church.
The Jesuit College in Passau was completed in 1612. After the Thirty Years' War, the building of the church began. But in 1662 a city fire destroyed the Jesuit college and the building of the church came to a standstill. The structure of the college has priority. The Jesuits also quarrel with the Passau prince-bishop Wenzeslaus Graf von Thun. In 1664 the dispute was settled and the building of the church could continue. Construction was completed in 1676 and the consecration took place in 1677. The magnificent stucco is by Giovanni Battista Carlone. The interior decoration continues until 1720, so the six side altars date from 1678, the high altar, a work by Jakob Pawanger, is erected in 1712. The pulpit was made between 1715 and 1720. Ludwig Eisenbarth Orgelbau built the organ in 1973.
The Mother of God Chapel in the Haunstetten district of Augsburg is considered a Rococo pearl in and around Augsburg.
The current chapel was built between 1740 and 1741, by order of Abbot Cölestin Mayr von Ortisei and Afra, as the old chapel has become dilapidated. The builder is probably Johann Paulus. No lesser masters can be recruited for the interior decoration than Christoph Thomas Scheffler for the frescoes and Ignaz Finsterwalder as plasterer.

Chrch of St. John (at front) and church of St. Stephan (at background) in the old part of village Podaca :)
Church of St. John - the pre-romanesque Church of St. John, from 12-th century, is the oldest sacral building in this ares, built as the mausoleum of the noble Kacic family, as evidences by the tombstones which were once inside the church and are now visible in the front of it.
Church of St. Stephan Protomartyr - this church is a neo-romanesque building from 18-th century, built on the foundations of the old church of St. Stephen from the 15-th century, and it was a gift by Ivan Tomic, an emigrant who gained fame and fortune in building the Suez Canal.
Podaca is a coastal village and tourist locality in southern Dalmatia, Croatia. It's divided in three neighborhoods that are seamlessly connected to next willages: Kapeć, Viskovića vala and Ravanje. Old Podaca was founded on the rocky slopes as defensible location, and there are traces of human habitation since Stone Age. During the Roman rule this area was administrated from Narona. After an earthquake in 1962, almost the entire population migrated to the coastal area and the old settlement of Podaca under the Biokovo mountains is almost completely abandoned. Currently, the main source of income for the inhabitants is tourism, but they also engage in fishing, agriculture and cultivation of olive groves.

Kościół św. Jana (z przodu) oraz Kościół św. Szczepana (w tle) w starej części miejscowości Podaca :)
Kościół św. Jana - przedromański kościół św. Jana z XII wieku jest najstarszą budowlą sakralną na tym terenie, powstał jako mauzoleum szlacheckiego rodu Kaciców, o czym świadczą nagrobki, wcześniej znajdujące się w kościele, zaś obecnie umieszczone przed nim.
Kościół św. Szczepana Pierwszego Męczennika - kościół ten jest neoromańską budowlą z XVIII wieku, zbudowany na fundamentach starego kościoła św. Szczepana z XV wieku, który był darem Ivana Tomica, emigranta, który zyskał sławę i fortunę budując Kanał Sueski.
Podaca – wieś w Chorwacji, położona w południowej części Riwiery Makarskiej, u podnóża Biokova. Składa się z trzech części: Kapec, Viskovica Vala i Ravanje. Podaca powstała na skalistych zboczach Biokova, w strategicznym miejscu, gdzie znajdują się ślady osadnictwa pochodzące z epoki kamiennej. Podczas panowania rzymskiego miejscowość była administrowana z Narony. Po trzęsieniu ziemi w 1962 roku, niemal cała ludność przeniosła się do strefy przybrzeżnej, zaś stara osada Podaca pod klifami Biokova jest prawie zupełnie opuszczona. Obecnie głównym źródłem dochodu mieszkańców jest turystyka, ale zajmują się też rybołówstwem, rolnictwem i uprawianiem gajów oliwnych.

In 1500, Cardinal Diego Hurtado de Mendoza ordered the original chapel to be enlarged for burial, since the great devotion that the Virgin of Antigua had among the Sevillians well deserved the largest chapel of those considered minor chapels. The fresco of the Virgin of Antigua, which presides over the marble altarpiece by José Fernández de Iglesias with sculptures by Pedro Duque Cornejo (half S.XVIII). There is a legend that explains the name of this Virgin but the reality she is not so old, she dates from the time when the mosque was used as a Christian temple (14th century). The goldsmith’s crown was added in 1929 for her canonical coronation. The paintings, which iconographically represent the history of the Virgin of Antigua, as well as the saints and some landscapes, are works by Domingo Martínez (first half of the 18th century). Also noteworthy are the tombs of Cardinal Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, in Renaissance style, made by Doménico Fancelli (early 16th century) and that of Archbishop Luis Salcedo y Azcona, made by Pedro Duque Cornejo (mid 18th century) and inspired by the Renaissance one. Stained glass windows: San Fernando, designed by José Gestoso (19th century).

The pilgrimage church of the Assumption of Mary in Oberostendorf can be seen from afar. The interior of the church is characterized by its rich and magnificent rococo furnishings. The actual church building dates from the 15th century. However, it has been redesigned over time. Last in 1747, when the church received its rococo dress. Johann Georg Wolker paints the fresco cycle, which has the Seven Sorrows of Mary as its theme. Franz Xaver Feichtmayr the Elder equipped the interior with rich, colored stucco. The magnificent pulpit, a work by Ignaz Hillebrandt, is richly decorated with figures.
The high altar and the side altars from 1719/20, a work by Matthäus Schäffler, were slightly reworked in 1747 and adapted to the newly designed room.
La construction de cette église (1873-1923), monument à la fois politique et culturel, suit l'après-guerre de 1870. Elle est déclarée d'utilité publique par une loi votée le 24 juillet 1873 par l'Assemblée nationale de 1871 ; le bâtiment est officiellement achevé en 1923. Elle s'inscrit dans le contexte de recharge sacrale et dans le cadre d'un nouvel « ordre moral » faisant suite aux événements de la Commune de Paris, dont Montmartre fut un des hauts lieux. Sa situation à 130 m d'altitude près de l'un des points culminants de Paris, et son dôme qui s'élève à 83 mètres, la rendent visible de très loin.
Abbot Georg III Gaißler started 1688 with the building, architect was Michael Thumb. But it was abbot Romanus Vogler who layed the foundation stone. At October the 24th 1725 the auxiliary bishop Franz Anton of Syrgenstein consecrated this sacral building.
On the organ loft there is a Silbermann organ of 1752.
Ruins of a medieval fortified church are located above the village of Lúčka, situated at the border of the Slovenské rudohorie mountain range and the national park of Slovenský kras. The village had been known since 1409 as part of the Turňa Castle Estate donated to Pál Besen by King Sigismund.
According to the testimony provided by the local church, however, the village dates back to at least the half of the 13th century. The church itself was built as an early-Gothic church of the Gemer style. In the first half of the 15th century, it was surrounded by a defensive stone wall with a watchtower situated in the front. The small fortress was captured by Jan Jiskra’s troopsand is commonly called the Hussite church by the locals. Only the external walls of the church and the considerably lowered defensive wall with the tower that later on served as a belfry have been preserved up to the present. The quadratic tower used to have two floors in the past, with three windows on the first floor and three loopholes on the ground floor that served to watch the surroundings and to protect the fortress from three sides: the west, the south, and the east. The top of the slope upon which the church was built provided for the natural protection from the north.
The area where the church stands counts among the ecologically cleanest territories in Slovakia. It provides for exceptionally good conditions for recreationin a peaceful natural setting and for short walks in the basin of the Čremošná, to the lake of Lúčka, as well as to the surrounding beech and fir forests. Moreover, the unique natural reserve of Zádielska dolina is located in close distance, lined with plateaux where traces of fortified prehistoric settlements were confirmed by archaeological surveys.
