Ausschnitt aus dem Wikipedia-Artikel
"Zweiter Weltkrieg
Im Laufe des Zweiten Weltkriegs erhielt das Münster Symbolcharakter für beide Parteien. Adolf Hitler, der es am 28. Juni 1940 besichtigte, wollte aus dem Sakralbau ein „Nationalheiligtum des deutschen Volkes“ machen. Am 2. März 1941 schworen sich Generalmajor Leclerc und die Soldaten seiner Division in Kufra (in Libyen), die „Waffen erst dann niederzulegen, wenn unsere schönen Farben wieder auf der Straßburger Kathedrale wehen“ („Le serment de Koufra“, Der Schwur von Koufra). Diesen Schwur erfüllten sie am 23. November 1944. Am 11. August 1944 erlitt das Gebäude Schäden, als es von britischen und amerikanischen Fliegerbomben getroffen wurde, endgültig behoben wurden diese erst 1990. "

Had a very summery sunrise at Bawdsey this morning, but as I was heading home a storm started coming in, so took a detour to Shingle Street. Shortly after this amazing cloud appeared, I was caught in the most almighty thunderstorm with driving pea-sized hail and visibility went down to about 10ft. Safe to say I got more than a little wet...
