Thank you so much, Christo and Tara.
b.t.w.:
Laughing, Tara! I have no idea whether there are stairs, but it should be.
In this place I took many pictures of old churches and monasteries.
All are restored at this time.
Because of these workmen I was limited in making specific photos, and I could not (or rather, didn't dare) to go inside.
Everywhere there were cars and machines/intruments of the workmen, much dust I got over me ;-).
But, you have something 'sacrifice' to take pictures, right?
There is an abundance of churches, etc. in Sittard.
One of the restorers told me that (about 25 years ago) the pope visited them.
They let ring all the bells in all towers on the same time, as the Pope arrived. However, there was panic, because one of the highest church towers (which included a clock) began to move back and forth.
They had to be quickly stopped.
God bless, and greetz,
Mies/Jacomina :)
