Sous l’emprise permanente d’un des plus beaux paysages du monde, le vigneron de Lavaux, se révèle poète, respectueux de ce contact privilégié avec les éléments, alchimiste mêlant terre et graviers, tailles et boutures, pluies et lumières, pour que les grappes embellissent, fruits du labeur, fruits du soleil.
Des portes de Lausanne à l’entrée de la vallée du Rhône le vignoble en terrasses de Lavaux offre un panorama grandiose. Avec des vignes plantées en banquettes (et non dans la pente), en suivant les courbes de niveau pour limiter l’érosion, le vignoble de Lavaux forme un relief des plus harmonieux. Le sol de Lavaux est de nature morainique, composé d’argile, de calcaire et de minéraux de toutes sortes, facilitant le drainage naturel des eaux de surface.

"Founded by German immigrants in 1856. In October 2016, Archbishop Allen H. Vigneron entrusted St Joseph to the pastoral care of the Instate of Christ the King Sovereign Priest to serve as a spiritual home in th eArchdiocese of Detroit for those desiring to receive all of the sacraments in the Extraordinary Form of th eRoman Latin Rite. The Institute of Christ the King is a Society of Apostolic Life of Pontifical High founded by Monsignor Gilles Wach and Canon Philippe Mora in 1990 in Gabon, Africa. Today the Institute operates in more than 80 locations in 12 countries and the Motherhouse and International Seminary in Gricigliano, Italy."
"The Church:
The original structure was a wooden Fram church built at the corner of Gratiot and Orleans, but by 1869 it became clear that it was inadequate for the congregation. The present church, designed by Franz George Himpler, was begun in 1870. It is a magnificent and largely unaltered example of Victorian Gothic Revival at its best. The building is a protected structure under the City of Detroit's Historic District Ordinance, is listed on the Michigan Register of Historic Sites, and is the only church in Detroit listed as "of national importance" on the National Register of Historic Places."

"The Windows
At the liigturgical east of the church, the chancel is enclosed with five tall, slender, staned glass windows; these are the most important cultural objects in the church, internationally known for their position in the history of European and American stained glass. Beneat the figures of Christ and Peter, in the central window, is th signature of Mayer of Munich, the world-famous stained glass makers. These 1873 windows are the oldest known Mayer glass in America. But they are not entirely by Mayer; only the figures owith their pedestals and bases came from Munich. The geometric designs in red, yellow, and blue above and below the figures were made by Frederic's & Staffin of Detroit, based on a design by architect Himpler. This is the earliest documented involvement of an American architect in the design of stained glass and it must be assumed that Himpler was also in contact with Mayer for the Mayer glass fits perfectly into the pattern Himpler designed. Other stained glass was bought in Detroit from the firm of Frederic's & Staffin, whose owners were parishioners. The rose window is Frederic's family gift. The firm also made the window over the side door and the geometric windows in the body of the church. The Death of Joseph window was imported from Innsbruck, Austria. Across from it is the Good Shepherd window, made by Frederichs & Staffin, with both the old and the present St. Joseph shown in the lower panels."
