Greetings from Köln III. ~The Dom~
I think this is the most fantastic architecture I've ever seen, gigantic and beautiful.The Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church, it's plan is in the shape of a Latin Cross.Construction of Cologne Cathedral began in 1248 and took, with interruptions, until 1880 to complete – a period of over 600 years. It is 144.5 metres long, 86.5 m wide and its two towers are 157 m tall. The cathedral is one of the world's largest churches and the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe.
some close-up's
Some 1945 feeling shots...it's a miracle that this fantastic architecture survived the devastating bomb raids ... and the war ... The cathedral suffered seventy hits by aerial bombs during World War II. It did not collapse, but stood tall in an otherwise flattened city. The great twin spires are said to have been used as an easily-recognizable navigational landmark by Allied aircraft raiding deeper into Germany in the later years of the war, which may be another reason the cathedral was not destroyed.

Tényleg impozánsra sikeredett ez a domos sorozat. Èjszaka remekül meg van világítva - amikor ott voltam 2 napig ki akartam menni éjjel, hogy lefotozzam, de sajnos tul lusta voltam felkelni.
Igen, en is lattam esti felveteleket, bamulatos, mi csak egy fel napot voltunk Kolnbe, de legkozelebb biztos tobbet maradunk, az ido sem volt mindig velem...
Great Pictures, that last one looked almost haunting.
