Degeberga Church

Degeberga, Sweden

Degeberga Church was built in the end of 12th century and it consisted of nave, choir and apse. The tower and vaults were added in the early 1400s. The tower is survived, but the other exterior dates mainly from the restoration made in the 1860s. The unique detail in the church is a pulpit, which was donated to Degeberga already in 1592.

The church is very stately and the buildings around with associated gardens are beautifully maintained. This place has been the house of God since time immemorial and those who are curious about its history can find much and more. Last but not least want to highlight the people I met here, I am extremely grateful for the warm happy reception I received here, also of course the beautiful singing of the choir and piano playing of the highest class. Peace of the Lord :)

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
