Reperti romani sparsi.

nobody@ipernity.com (Annemarie) — Thu, 18 Apr 2024 06:49:00 +0000

Il giardino, a ingresso gratuito, ospita una moltitudine di reperti archeologici, architettonici ed epigrafici, provenienti dai grandi scavi di fine Ottocento per la realizzazione di nuovi quartieri e infrastrutture e precedentemente conservati nell’Ex Antiquarium Comunale.

I materiali sono organizzati per nuclei tematici e offrono ai visitatori la possibilità di approfondire la conoscenza della Roma antica nel quotidiano: dalla sfera funeraria al gusto architettonico e alle tecniche di costruzione, dal senso del divino alla contrapposizione fra edifici pubblici e privati

Holding the distinction of being one of the largest churches in India, St. Philomena’s Church in Mysore draws attention due to its architectural perfection. Dedicated to St. Philomena, it’s also counted as the second largest church in Asia.
The church is constructed in the Neo-Gothic or Victorian style and draws inspiration from the Cologne Cathedral of Germany. The church has been built in the shape of a cross and boasts an accommodation capacity of around 800 people. The sanctum, with its stained glass windows, enhances the beauty of the entire church and displays lovely paintings from various stages of Christ’s life including his birth, the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, among others. The pillars of the church too have been decorated with exquisite flower patterns; South India Karnataka State Mysore cathedral basilica.

St. Philomena's Church is a church built in honor of St. Philomena in the city of Mysore. It was constructed in 1956 using a Neo Gothic style and its architecture was inspired by the Cologne Cathedral in Germany. In 1926, Sir T. Thumboo Chetty who was the Huzur Secretary to the Maharaja of Mysore, Nalvadi Krishnaraja Wodeyar, obtained a relic of the saint Philomena, after writing to Peter Pisani, Apostolic Delegate of the East Indies. This relic was handed over to Father Cochet who approached the king to assist him in constructing a church in honor of St. Philomena. The Maharaja of Mysore laid the foundation stone of the church on 28 October 1933. In his speech on the day of the inauguration, the Maharaja is said to have quoted, "The new church will be strongly and securely built upon a double foundation — Divine compassion and the eager gratitude of men..." The construction of the church was completed under Bishop Rene Fuga's supervision. The relic of St. Philomena is preserved in a catacomb below the main altar; South India Karnataka State Mysore cathedral basilica St.Philomena.
