Today I visited our parish church to see the Christmas crib. I remembered that I had promised Doc to show him the stained glass. This is stained glass in our church. Glass was first used for windows in ancient Rome, where they began using transparent glass, and the first appearance of colored glass originated in France. And that’s how the stained glass came into being. Stained glass is a product made of colored glass and is usually 3-4 millimeters thick. The glass is colored with special colors that are already added to the glass mass during its manufacture, so the colors never fade. In the Middle Ages, the stained glass appeared mainly in churches where they educated the population through religious stories.

This is so beautiful!
Thank you so much, it’s really something special.
There are very few places where stained glass is used where I live.
Unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer of us.
I really like stained glass in churches … this one is very beautiful too, dear Vidocka
Thank you very much. Stained glass windows are really something special.
Interestingly, not all churches have stained glass, dear Vidocka
Yes, I don’t know why that is.
It probably depends on what period the church was built
I have always loved stained glass windows and you can get that in paintings as well.
The view of the stained glass windows is really wonderful.
we had stained glass in our first house in Cincinnati Ohio we loved it!!!
Wooow, your house must have been beautiful with stained glass.
it really was, it was very old when we bought it but the stained glass was beautiful. The front window had stained glass above the window. The front door had stained glass on the sides!
When our church got renovated we had such features added.
in our churches, there is less and less stained glass.
Gorgeous looking stain glass. I remember our old church with all its beautiful stain glass windows. Unfortunately it burned down and has been replaced with a more modern looking church which has only one stain glass centerpiece.
Thank you very much. Even in our churches, there is less and less stained glass. Only one or two.
Stunning! I love all kinds of stained glass.
Thank you. The stained glass windows are really stunning. Unfortunately, I see less and less of them.
