Stained Glass Window 2

This beautiful stained glass window is one of many in St Salvator’s Chapel, St Andrews, Scotland.

St Salvator’s Chapel

The chapel was founded in 1450 and has Late Gothic architecture.

There are many magnificent old buildings and churches all over the UK. This is just one small church in one small town.

I like the first window the best, but have included all of the windows, because everyone has different tastes and maybe your favourite is one of these others.

And below is a shot of the interior. You can see the organ pipes reaching high up into the roof.

What I love about a place such as this, apart from the glorious beauty, is the history. You are standing where others have stood, for nearly 570 years!

    Wow!! This is really a glorious piece of Gothic architecture. The glass stained windows are well preserved and in good state. Simply lovely and I hope you made a good wish through prayer there. I was told that when one visits a church or holy ground the first time, prayers are usually answered.😉

      Thank you 🙂 There were so many lovely coloured windows, really adding to the atmosphere in the very old building 🙂
