In awe of its magnificent baroque façade of three parts with the statue of Madonna and Child above the door, even before I went inside! This of course the very first Baroque Church built in Bordeaux, completed in 1620! What's really intriguing is how the inside completely different from the outside. It's more of a "barrel" form with exquisite frescoes ornamented ceiling and a main altar with Corinthian columns supporting a stunning circular pediment. A registered national monument and a treasure for any visitors. I absolutely admire this Baroque Church.

Easy location to park car behind the church. Amazing parish dedicated to FSSP. Mass was simple and easy to follow. Young crowd of parishioners and families. Beautiful cemetery in front.

Beautiful church and wonderful masses in latin. The abbés are most welcoming and very caring.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
