Stories in Stained Glass

The Cologne Cathedral in Germany is a magnificent edifice. It’s tall spires and beautiful sculptures inspire many. But the stain glass windows are a sight to see. Stories of the Christian faith are portrayed in glass. During the bombings during WWII, some of the windows were removed to prevent damage. We also visited the cathedral in Strasbourg, France. These are just a few of the beautiful windows we enjoyed seeing.

A light to the world

  4. Dwight — I’m enjoying all of your posts about your trip, but these windows were so stunning that I had to show my coworkers. One asked if by chance you took a picture of the Three Wise Men when you were at the Cologne Cathedral. If so, might you post it for her to see?
    Have a safe and happy Fourth, Dwight, and a big CONGRATULATIONS to you and your wife on 50 years!!!!! jen
