Canterbury Cathedral: stained glass

Canterbury Cathedral: stained glass
Canterbury Cathedral has some of the most beautiful stained glass windows in Britain.
- The so called Miracle windows in the Trinity chapel (main photo and 1st note) originally date from the early 13th century and depict healing miracles at the tomb of St. Thomas Becket. Many have been copied/restored in the 19th century.
- The redemption window in the Corona chapel (2nd note) also is early 13th century.
- The Great South Window (3rd and 4th note) is from 1428. Its complete renovation was finished only recently. All the glass panels had to be taken out and the stone tracery had to be completely rebuilt because of structural weaknesses.

Die Kathedrale von Canterbury hat einige der bedeutendsten mittelalterlichen Fenster in Großbritannien.
- Die sogenannten Wunder-Fenster in der Dreifaltigkeitskapelle (Hauptbild und 1. PiP) stammen ursprünglich aus dem frühen 13. Jh und stellen die Wunderheilungen dar, die angeblich am Schrein de heiligen Thomas Becket stattgefunden haben. Viele der Fenster wurden im 19. Jh kopiert bzw saniert.
- Das Erlösungs-Fenster in der Corona-Kapelle (2.PiP) stammt ebenfalls aus dem frühen 13. Jh.
- Das große Südfenster (3. und 4.PiP) wurde 1428 fertiggestellt und ist erst seit kurzem nach einer Komplettsanierung wieder zu sehen. Alles Glas musste sorgfältig herausgenommen und das Maßwerk vollkommen neu gebaut werden, da wegen struktureller Mängel Steine herausgefallen waren.
