Old St. Mary Church - 1763
This was/is by far the most breathtaking church I entered!. Just stunning and the pictures here will not do it justice. The stained glass, intricate wood carvings, marble colums, goldleaf and a ceiling mural.
The light was dim, however, the columns are marble, topped with goldleaf
The ceiling, and it has small painted stars
The altar and its stained glass crucifixtion
The goldleaf doesn't show well in the dim light
The back of the church, organ at top
Ornate and detailed wood carvings
The back of the church, standing in the cemetery
Burials to the side of the church
Oldest legible stone is from 1769
Unusual stones
