Rosheim - Saints-Pierre-et-Paul


The construction of the "Église Saints-Pierre-et-Paul" started around 1150. The church is known for the carvings. Though some of these got damaged during the French Revolution, most of them are still in place. Size and the quality of some of them is really breathtaking.
Looking to the central window of the main apse. The large carvings seem to be glued on to the wall. The symbols of the evangelists. On the left the eagle (John), the ox (Luke), on the right the angel (Matthew)and the lion (Marc). During the French Revolution the angel was erased, chiselled off with great precision. Maybe the other three symbols survived, as they were believed to be out of the "real world". When the ensemble consisting of the four sculptures and the window was created, there must have been another "content" in the center. A lamb, or a "majestas domini" in stained glass maybe.
