You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Beautifull shot Patti !! i love it, great light. Regarding your book left at mum, well here is some data.

Dom Place Salzburg.

Located where Residenzplatz flows into Domplatz in Salzburg, Austria, Salzburg Cathedral is world-renowned for its Renaissance architecture and 4,000-pipe organ. It is officially named the Cathedral of St. Rupert or Dom St. Rupert.

A church has stood on the site of the present Salzburg Cathedral from 774 AD. The original was replaced with a late-Romanesque structure completed in 1200, which burned down in 1598.

Prince-Archbishop Wolf Dietrich took advantage of (some say caused) the old Romanesque-Gothic cathedral's destruction by fire to demolish the remains and make plans for a huge new structure to reaffirm Salzburg's commitment to the Catholic cause. However, his overthrow prevented the completion of this project.

Dietrich's successor, Archbishop Markus Sittikus Count Hohenems, commissioned the Italian architect Santino Solari to build the present cathedral, which was consecrated in 1628 by Archbishop Paris Count Lodron.

Hailed by some critics as the "most perfect" Renaissance building in the Germanic countries, the cathedral has a marble facade and twin symmetrical towers. The mighty bronze doors were created in 1959. The themes are Faith, Hope, and Love.

The interior is in the Baroque style with elaborate frescoes, the most important of which, along with the altarpieces, were designed by Mascagni of Florence.

The church's simple sepia-and-white interior, a peaceful counterpoint to the usual Baroque splendor, dates from a later renovation. The dome was damaged during World War II but was restored by 1959.

Near the entrance, look for the Romanesque font at which Mozart was baptized. The great composer later served as organist here from 1779 to 1781. Some of his compositions, such as the Coronation Mass, were written for the cathedral, and many were performed here for the first time.

Haha ha Patti, i am sorry !!! but i could not resist the challenge, seeing you left your book behind.
I saw on the right side of your image a street sign, so i just "googled" the streetname, and the text above, is what i came up with, the rest was just copy and paste lol :-)
I have never been there, so it was once again, great to come along on your beautifull trip of Salzburg. Please keep them coming if you see fit.

Hans.
