For the Glory of God and Country

The Cathedral in Osijek, Croatia, dates from the early 19th century. We made several trips there to admire the paintings and the arches.

I got a kick out of this stork's nest on a broken pinnacle.

South aisle. The Catholic Church is closely associated with Croatian nationalism, so non-Catholics are considered unpatriotic.
Picture
The church was heavily targeted by the Orthodox Serbs during the war for independence. Most paintings have been restored, but this one still shows the marks of shrapnel.
Picture
Most of the windows were broken in the shelling.
Picture
Windows all bear post-war dates. When we were there in the 1990s everyone wanted to tell you their war stories. Now people don't want to talk about it.
Picture
I'm still trying to figure out how to use the stitch function of my camera to create panoramas. When buildings are involved, it's hard to get edges to line up because moving the camera means changing the angle. This attempt is from left to right over the crossing of the cruciform.
The city of Osijek dates back a few thousand years, although it has been destroyed many times. Monday I'll post pictures of the old town.
