Churches

Paris= Notre Dame Was almost set on fire in 1871 and some say a staircase was set

on fire After many years of torture, all the art in Notre Dame is polished

and back to its “honey looking” color. Much of the original paintings in the building were destroyed,

but were remade by someone else to recapture their beauty.

Rome= Saint Peter’s Church The central tower is 265 feet tall!!! Stained glass windows include pictures of Jesus being born, of

Jesus on the cross, when he rose from the dead, and many other bible scenes

In the Sistine Chapel, there is a very famous picture of God giving Adam life.
