The Medieval Stained Glass of Regensburg Cathedral

A Kaleidoscope of Color

The Silver High Altar

The Organ and Organist HANG from the
ceiling in the nave.

The High Altar and East End.

The Crossing

A Wise Man Keeps Watch over the High Altar.  

Beautiful Colors, Beautiful Shapes.

The Nave seen from the east end triforium.

The Crossed Keys of St. Peter.

A technicolor dream with the black Imperial Eagle.

Stained glass students getting up close and 
personal with the glass.

 It was an honor and a treat to be allowed on the triforium level of the cathedral;
 not something many visitors get to do.

Maxwell's Silver Hammer; A Stone Masons Tale

Before our ascent up Regensburg Dom (Cathedral) we were welcomed at the Stone Masons Lodge and the Dom Archives by the Master Mason and the Architect of the Dom. The skill of the carvers never ceases to amaze me. The German masons have a strong tradition of apprenticeship and German Journeymen, known for their skill, can also be found working at York Minster.

The Regensburg Dom Stone Mason's Yard

Blocks lie waiting to become part of the Dom.

He served his time well.

A buttress section awaits the carver.

A finished pinnacle months in the making.

Silent Saints observe the masons at work.

The masons are trained to make their own tools in the house forge.

The lodge full of natural light to carve by.

A loving tribute.

The archives guide all the work.
