St. Martin's Cathedral in Utrecht - Majestic and Magnificent
St. Martin's Cathedral is one of the most famous buildings of Utrecht in Netherlands.
This Cathedral named also Dom Church is dedicated as you understand to Saint Martin who after stopping of the military career became a Christian and later Bishop.
Being at the military service that he did the honorable and legendary thing - having met a naked man in the winter, he cut his military cloak and gave him it's half. Namely this episode depicted above the door of the Cathedral is one of the most glorious in biography of St. Martin.
The St. Martin’s Cathedral is legendary too after going through the centuries and cataclysms.
Partially destroyed ...
the Cathedral impresses and brings to mind that it is really possible to share own cloak to help somebody!
Magnificent and amazing architecture. Excellent and interesting photos!
Many thanks for your lovely reply! I am very glad to know your opinion and strongly appreciate it :D
What an extremely impressive building! Maybe it's because of the military background, the cathedral looks like a fortress. It also looks like they can film Harry Potter in there and it wouldn't look out of place! Thanks for posting!
Agree with you. This is absolutely unique place with special spirit. I have visited it in the evening that increased the feeling of mystery. Thank you that you refresh my emotions :D
