T in die neue Woche



The Cathedral of Florence or Duomo is immensely decorative outside, but not so in the inside.
I queued for an hour and was a bit disappointed that it was not allowed to sit on the benches. 
This has never been the case in any church.




Some elaborate bronze details on some door.

  1. Oh... me neither. That is more than unusual that you are not allowed to sit down ;-( I think that's exactly the moment when you can enjoy it. It's a pity, but you were able to take some nice pictures, and from the outside it’s just gorgeous. As well as today's T what you brought from there. Thank you very much for that and for being part of the project again.

    I am very happy and wish you a nice Sunday

    Greetings over to you

  2. As you say, it is very unusual and strange that you cannot sit down. What a pity!
    Your shots are beautiful and neat.
    Happy weekend!

  3. Good morning Riitta!


    WOW! The cathedral is magnificent from the outside. I have never seen such a beautiful cathedral. From the inside there is nothing, there are really nicer ones. I find it rather unfriendly that a church blocks the benches. It's a pity!



    Have a nice Sunday!

    best regards

  4. Dear Riitta,
    this cathedral is really all around extraordinary. And so are the streams of visitors who wander through it every day. In order to keep this stream flowing, they probably prevented sitting.

    I still remember very well how impressed I was by this building. Both inside and outside.

    Happy Sunday and best regards

  7. So true Elke, there are deceptions sometimes. I do not know thoroughly the building history of this Duomo. But surely an inmense amount of work and inmense amount of money. At its building time, a great many people suffered of poverty and also famine, I suppose. But the Catholic Church needed to show its power?

  9. Oh, wie schön, Santa Maria del Fiori, hast du auch aufgenommen. Die Tür ist schon sehr imposant und beeindruckend.Schade, das man nicht sitzen konnte und Andacht halten.
    Danke für das Erinnern, Klärchen

  10. Riitta - it is sad that people are not allowed to sit on the pews. Like you, I have never seen that in a church. Just because it is "visiting hours", I am sure that there are people who would like to worship. It is a heavenly building. Thanks for sharing with Mosaic Monday!

  12. Hello, it is strange you were not allowed to sit down. A church should feel more welcoming, this sound like take a look and move on. It is a beautiful building with lovely details! Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!

  13. Magnificent splendor! The cathedral is gorgeous and what a wonderful place to take pictures or visit for a while. Such lovely details and craftsmanship that we no longer do, so sad.
