Commencée en 1248, la construction de ce chef-d'œuvre de l'art gothique se fit par étapes et s'acheva en 1880. Au cours de ces sept siècles, ses bâtisseurs successifs furent animés de la même foi et d'un esprit de fidélité absolue aux plans d'origine. La cathédrale de Cologne témoigne de la force et de la persistance de la foi chrétienne en Europe.
Today, I received a beautiful pastcard from Köln in Germany. It’s the Cologne Cathedral by night. This cathedral is on the World Heritage list of UNESCO.
Begun in 1248, the construction of this Gothic masterpiece took place in several stages and was not completed until 1880. Over seven centuries, successive builders were inspired by the same faith and a spirit of absolute fidelity to the original plans. Cologne Cathedral testifies to the enduring strength of European Christianity.
Danke schön Hanna
