The "Cathédrale Saint-Étienne de Bourges" was erected as a replacement for an 11th-century structure. The construction started probably in the last quarter of the 12th century, around the same time when the builders and bricklayers started in Chartres. The choir of the cathedral was in use by 1214, the nave was finished 1255. The cathedral was consecrated in 1324.
The cathedral covers a surface of 5,900 m². The nave is 15 metres wide and 37 metres high, the inner aisle is 21.3 metres high. There are no transepts, but two aisles on either side forming a double ambulatory around the choir.
The cathedral retains many of its original stained-glass windows, which dates from about 1215.
This window depicts the "Passion" from the "Last Supper" to the "Resurrection of Jesus"
Comiso - Easter

We had witnessed different Semana Santa / Holy Week traditions already. When we reached Comiso on Easter Sunday, we were too late to see the "Resurrection of Jesus", but we still found this vehicle, that was obviously used to make it better visible.
