Here you see the steeples of the Basilica and the church, taken from one of the higher levels in the old cemetery of the Chateau. You see a part of the beautiful Russian chapel on the left. I wish someone would come along and mend the roof. I fear for this beautiful building - my favourite in the cemetery.
The cemetery is above the Old Town - you can see these steeples in the banner photograph of this blog.
les églises russes sont vraiment très belle. Ici nous en avons une vraiment sublime, mais il est interdit de prendre des photos a l'intérieur
ReplyDeleteOlivier, this chapel is totally closed - never open. The handles of the doors are stuck. I'd love to get inside but I doubt it would be possible.
ReplyDeleteA lovely photo, Jilly. Those towers are really beautiful and Russian church architecture is always so special..
ReplyDeleteMaybe it is a place filled with dead and not a chapel. We have them here in old cemeteries. I forget the name.
ReplyDeleteThat view never fails to resonate with me.
