A black and white, low angle photograph of the historic Manaranga Church, featuring a prominent central tower with Gothic style pointed arch windows and battlements at the top, capped by two small spires.

The church facade is built from contrasting materials, possibly stone and render. The sky is heavily clouded, adding a dramatic, moody atmosphere.

View from the altar, in foreground, of the choir and back windows, all in the church's distinctive white, minimalist style. the altar is a plain rectangular block of marble, and surrounded by the back windows in the distance is a statue of Christ raising his right hand.

I'd never noticed the neoclassical architecture of the organ before posting this.

Looking down the nave from the altar at the church organ and entrance. There are two sections of empty wooden chairs and square columns on both sides. The organ is made of dark brown wood carved to look like a neoclassical temple with columns, statues and othet architectural elements.

🌿 ⛪️Sameiro Sanctuary, Braga, Portugal
Where Heaven Meets the Earth ⛪️🌿

Rising above the hills of Braga, the Sanctuary of Sameiro is more than stone and faith. It is a silent hymn ascending to infinity.
Since the 19th century, this sacred place has welcomed pilgrims, prayers, and the quiet steps of those seeking peace in the heights.

Its stairways, flanked by statues and sculpted mysteries, form a rosary of art and devotion. Each panel, each chapel, tells the story of the faith that shaped Portugal a deep love for the Virgin Mary, Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception.

From the top of Sameiro, the gaze drifts between clouds and mountains, embracing the city of Braga and the horizon that seems to touch the divine.
Inside the temple, light filters through the colorful stained glass, and silence invites contemplation where time stands still and the heart finds rest.

Here, the sacred does not impose itself: it blossoms. 🌸

church entrance and organ viewed from the altar, continuing white, minimalist design. the organ pipes of various sizes are arranged in groups that form 45 degree angles, in alternating directions and sizes.

https://www.fromoldbooks.org/Paley-Fonts/pages/decorated-market-bosworth/

The font’s at least partly from the 13th century, not 14th as the book says; it was damaged in the 20th century when a bit fell off the tower and through the roof onto it. St. Peter’s Church, Market Bosworth, Leicestershire - the church is approx. 700 years old. The heraldic shields on the font were originally painted.

Someone needs to make a #typeface called Market Bosworth.
