Fraumunster Kirche Sanctuary

Fraumunster Cathedral, Zurich, Switzerland

Fraumunster Cathedral (Church of our Lady) sanctuary, towards the organ. While this isn't the photo I would make of this locale today (touch of soft focus, some other technical issues), it's a pretty damn fine image, I think, and the cathedral's website states that photography is no longer allowed. I guess this is gonna have to do. The pipe organ in the background has 5,793 pipes (largest in Zurich). The stained glass window was installed in 1945 and was by Augusto Giacometti. The church building dates to the 13th century. Wish I had taken a vertical.....
