  1. Chapelle des Pelotes, an abandoned chapel in northern France.

    The seminary and the chapel closed in the 1990s. At this time there was a “crisis of faith” in France; the number of practising Catholics and new baptisms began to decline in the late 1980s and 1990s.

    Many churches were closed during this period of upheaval in the church. Chapelle des Pelotes was one of those casualties of the changing political and religious climate in France.

  2. Church or Chapel? edintone.com/church-or-chapel/ “Are you church or chapel?”

    It sounds like a small question today. But well into the twentieth century in England, it revealed a great deal about a person — their beliefs, their community, even their social identity. #church #chapel #nonconformist #ListedBuildings

    This #chromolithography example shows the inside of the chapel St. John’s College Cambridge. This picture was made around 1840; later, in 1860, the chapel was demolished & replaced with a Victorian Gothic Revival thing by Sir Gilbert Scott.

    At least six colours here i think, so 6 plates, although sometimes they overprinted to get mixed colours.

  7. An old Gothic crypt, lost and forgotten in the forest of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    The vaulted ceiling is tall and arched with strong ribs in classic Gothic style. Long vines hang down from the ceiling, having worked their way down through the roof. The beautiful red and black floor tiles caught my eye as I walked in!
