Description
Decided to start a lil series about Speyer Cathedral, not far away from my home town, we've visited a couple of weeks ago.
Hope you'll find it interesting.
The imperial Cathedral of Speyer, the foundation of which is in the form of a latin cross,
is one of the largest and most significant Romanesque edifices in Germany.
It was built by the emperors and designated as their last resting place as a symbol of their power.
Construction began around 1030 under the Salic Emperor Konrad II and it was consecrated in 1061.
In 1980 the cathedral was added to the UNESCO World Heritage program.
Thanks for viewing and any comments!
Hugz, Monika

I like this photograph. Its architectural lines, its colors honest make photographs of them seizing. Excel! (J'aime cette photo. Ses lignes architecturales, ses couleurs franche en font une photos saisissantes. Excellent!)
Very interesting subject - Appears quite large and difficult to shoot as a whole - Makes me feel like I only got a sneek peek in a way - the photo work is very nice - I don't understand why the images are so small - :) - I like border but they have only used up the space i wish the image was in -
