点评:This church was constructed in 1756 and after many alterations it sadly succumbed to a fire on Halloween night 2001 - the blaze destroyed most the contents and half of the building, which had been designated a national historic site as the second-oldest Anglican church in Canada.It was classified as Carpenter gothic revival architecture
because of its wooden rather then stone structure.
As Lunenburg is UNESCO protected finance was raised to reconstruct to the smallest detail an exact replica - extraordinary.It was fortunate that they had the craftsmen as Lunenburg was a large shipbuilding town through centuries notwithstanding the grand houses with their intricate wooden relief on their roofs windows and verandahs
requiring maintenance - so these skills remained in the town from generation to generation fortunately
It is such an architectural gem of great beauty with a fitting spiritual energy - you are humbled here by the sheer tranquillity
We were guided through the history by one of the proud volunteers whose family can trace their ancestry back to early settlers
翻译:这座教堂建于 1756 年,经过多次改建,不幸于 2001 年万圣节之夜发生火灾 - 大火烧毁了建筑的大部分内容和一半,该建筑已被指定为国家历史遗址,是加拿大第二古老的圣公会教堂.它被归类为木匠哥特式复兴建筑
因为它的木结构而不是石头结构。
由于 Lunenburg 是联合国教科文组织保护的资金,因此筹集资金以重建到最小的细节,一个精确的复制品 - 非凡。幸运的是,他们拥有工匠,因为 Lunenburg 是几个世纪以来的大型造船城镇,尽管屋顶窗户上有复杂的木制浮雕的宏伟房屋和阳台
需要维护 - 所以幸运的是,这些技能代代相传地留在了镇上
它是如此美丽的建筑瑰宝,具有合适的精神能量——你会被这里纯粹的宁静所折服
