The ruins of St. Albain Nazaire in France.

On this day in 1919, the Holy See announced plans to raise funds to repair the 1,300 churches in France damaged during the Great War.

How odd that this would fall so close to current events.

Churches of the East

This blog is a collection of photographs of churches, and sometimes a bit more, that we find interesting. It isn't an attempt to catalog all the churches in any one town, or even of any one area in a town. The selection of churches featured is simply our own choice, based on churches we find architecturally or historically interesting for one reason or another.

That means that the selection is necessarily limited. Being sort of old school in terms of architecture, it also means that for the most part it will be rare to find a church built after the 1950s featured here, as we tend not to care too much for post 50s church architecture. That's just us, and isn't a comment on anything else.

This blog is a companion to Churches of the West and Churches of the South.
