Reims Cathedral Interior Main Door with Rose Window

Reims cathedral dates back to 1200s, and has a rich and full history which can be read on Wikipedia’s page about it.

Bushboy (Brian Dodd) shares photos of doors, but not just any doors. Spectacular doors from his journeys. Dan’s Thursday Doors opened the door on this. I love doors of all sorts. I’ve trawled through my photos and found a few to share.

    Magnificent doors. And I love the carvings on the sides.

    Beautiful door. I also love the embossed carving on top of it and that stained glass window is simply marvelous.

    Gorgeous rose window;  the term was used to represent the Virgin Mary, as the rose is one of her primary symbols.

    What a contrast between doors and window. The window is fireworks.
