Den Bosch (Netherlands): St. John's Cathedral and surroundings
Loading...
Uploaded by btlim5163 on Aug 27, 2008
During a daytrip to Den Bosch last year, I also visited the well-known St. John's Cathedral with it's beautiful pipe-organ and had a quick look at the marketplace with its stalls and hundreds of things which were sold there.
Want to know more about this city visit the city's homepage which is also available in English:
http://english.s-hertogenbosch.nl/
The Catholic St. John's Cathedral of 's-Hertogenbosch is the height of gothic architecture in Brabant, the Netherlands and was built in 1559. It has an extensive and richly decorated interior, and serves as the cathedral for the bishopric of 's-Hertogenbosch.It also received the honorary title of basilica from Pope John Paul II.
Unfortunately, the cathedral suffered a fire in 1584. Restoration didn't start until a second fire occurred in 1830. Ever since 1859 to the present day the city of Den Bosch has been busy with restorations, save two pauses between 1946 to 1961 and then again between 1985 to 1998.
