I took this photo at the end of our first day in Nuremberg, Germany. It is called Liebfrauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) and was really spectacular as the sun was setting.
Nuremberg belongs to the Archdiocese of Bamberg and possesses notable churches. For want of means the building of churches could not keep pace with the growth of the community; this condition rendered difficult the work of ministry. The Catholic churches at present accommodate barely 8000 people, while the Catholics in the city number over 90,000. The most beautiful church is the Liebfrauenkirche (Church of Our Dear Lady), built 1315-61 in Gothic style; it is one of the greatest ornaments of the city (Essenwein, "Die Liebfrauenkirche in Nürnberg", Nuremberg, 1881). |

Hi Alli,
Beautiful capture with warm lighting. excellent composition and details.

Nice lovely colors Alli. I did a workshop to straighten the church. I added a dreamy effect but I don't think I like it as well as the pure tones. B

Hi Alli,
obviously I missed a lot, when I was in Nurnberg. We visited the train museum, and that took a lot of time. Have to go back on a church tour! Lovely picture and wonderful afternoon colours!
Regards
Monica

Addition: at 12 noon the clock, created in the 16th century, starts working: the figures appear and start to move. This is very impressive, because it still works! We watched this with Elina on our last day in Nuerenberg, in April of 2002.
