| St Stephen`s Church, Mainz, Germany,
Originally built in 990 AD on the highest hill in Mainz, St Stephen`s, much like the Frauenkirche in Dresden, was heavily bombed in WWI and 80% of Mainz was destroyed.
The gothic styled St Stephen`s is unique with its ethereal blue stained glass windows, depicting scenes from the Old Testament and meant to honor the similarities between Christian and Jewish religions. |
