St. Stephen's Cathedral, Vienna


St. Stephen's Cathedral, Vienna
Originally uploaded by Doc Tony
St. Stephen's Cathedral (German: Stephansdom) is the mother church of the Archdiocese of Vienna and the seat of the Archbishop of Vienna. In the middle of St. Stephen's square it is one of the oldest and highest cathedrals of the world!

Note that in this picture part of one of its spires is under renovation. nothing new here, as preservation and repair of the fabric of the medieval cathedral has been a continuous process at St. Stephen's Cathedral since its original construction in 1147!

back from vienna

the whole week was a blur! too much to see in so little time...it is great to have photos to remind me of the places i have been and seen! yet there was so much more to see in such little time. as my friend always says, leave something for the next trip. i just hope it would be less frantic! lol!

shot this from a speeding van to budapest, so you will note the foreground blur...
