They finally showed us around our home after a couple weeks of being here. What a wonderful place full of rich history I live in! This is the ceiling in the adoration chapel... very old.
A lighting fixture in the ballroom. What a lovely ceiling!
This is the original Gothic ceiling that has since been hidden by a lower Baroque ceiling, on which I was standing to take this picture. It was an exercise in self-control to not be scared out of my mind that I was up so high... they told us stories about a soldier who fell from the belltower and died on the altar.
The view from above.
More Gothic wonderfulness.
I am so proud of myself for this picture... down with vertigo! This is the church as seen from above.
The newer ceiling we see from inside the church nowadays. This is the dome over the altar.
Grant looking down at the church below.
Old-time graffiti... there was stuff from the 1600s all the way to last year!
I wish people still wrote like this!
