Admiring the cathedral inside
El Buen Pastor, San Sebastián, Basque country Spain.
Today we visit it from the inside.
Remember that it is neo-Gothic art.
Finished building in the nineteenth century
The construction was already seen at the entrance the other day.
Today we are inside.
What to say?
Admiring a cathedral-San Sebastian
The more you enter you find the pulpit at the end.
Chaired by beautiful stained glass
That they will be for another chapter since they are many and varied.
The shape with a Latin cross plan, three longitudinal naves, transverse nave or transept and pentagonal head. You can see all that in Wikipedia
I am not an architect or even understood.
I only admire its beauty, for me it is important.
I'm also learning little by little.
That Gothic is the style that I like the most.
Its arches seem to reach the sky.
I can imagine the stonemasons carrying the stones from the monte urgulo near the cathedral.
House one transporting one with sweat and suffering.
They were other times that we can hardly imagine.
Then burn the stone so that everything is in place.
The mortar with which they joined each stone.
Creating arcs and columns all with their personal touch.
Increasingly taller and more beautiful.
She was created only in 9 years and all the workers, just like the architect, were Basque.
She is a beauty.
Admiring the pictures they speak better than me
All its outline is surrounded by stained glass
Did you see the reflections in this post?
The reflection of light /El reflejo de la luz
The high ceilings, spiky
You just have to look up and see them.
In the back of the altar are the choir benches.
The choir stalls are magnificent.
With its red color of mahogany.
The carpenters did a great job.
Worked and comfortable.
Any corner is good for meditation.
For the calm of the spirit and the body.
We also see the priest performing his functions.
The confessional almost a forgotten part.
We sit a little on the benches and see the colors of the sun.
On the organ railing.
That makes us meditate on us.
Organ of the Cathedral of San Sebastian,
Well when we go out we see the organ
And all its greatness.
I have nothing more to tell you.
Only it's worth visiting.
A beautiful city with a magnificent cathedral.
