This thing is about 800+ years old, made slightly more impressive given that it's a wooden structure I guess, but pretty mundane (Christianity wasn't fully established here until the 1300s or so, so it makes sense I suppose).
>>66173324
Not that pretty but old I guess
>>66172655

... am I the only one who gets rustled when two of the same things are right next to eacother like that? It just seems retarded, like when there are 5 gas stations in a row on the same street. Like, nigga, spread it OUT a bit, yeah?
1968
>>66176582
I also get rustled, it's irritating. Down the street there are two dentists right across the street from each other, like literally directly across
I was married here. I'm "methodist" and my wife is Lutheran. This is where she went to school and also worshipped. Typical midwest church in one of the oldest towns in the US.
>>66176682
>That building
>Those stairs
Finnish architecture everybody
>>66176810
>I'm "disgusting heretic" and my wife is follower of the one true faith
FTFY :^)
No, but seriously, the US has some really nice churches and cathedrals considering they can't really be that old. Some of the catholic ones on the east coast are especially nice.
>>66173010
The US has old stuff. Pic related (Chaco Canyon) is from around 900ad iirc.
>>66176810
>>66176928
Last time I checked, "methodist" and "lutheran" weren't in the bible
Only Israelite's, if you aren't an Israelite you aren't "Christian"
>>66176928
Town is Vincennes. A very old trading post created by the French.
Kek. Yes, I admit to being a fedora. She does her thing and I respect it. She prays for me or something. I love her to death.
At least she wasn't mormon. Or catholic!
1279 a.C

The first chapel was built in 386 and during the construction a lot of roman spolia were used. The church was built next to a Roman graveyard.
>>66176582
It's rare for the Netherlands when there are two chuches on the spot. This is an exception.
I don't know when it was built, but it was destroyed in 1521 and restored in 1867.
There's another one near it that had the same fate.
>>66172655
im sure there are football english clubs older than that church
>>66177441
The oldest church in Montreal, "Visitation-de-la-Bienheureuse-Vierge-Marie" (which translates to "Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary"). A Roman Catholic church which was first complete in 1752. However, many parts were added and/or restored in later years.
I think this is the oldest in my city - 1088
>>66177441
>>66177496

My parents moved to a village and this is the village church.
luckily they're moving out again after their "villages are calm and trendy" thing passed
not like I care but still I need to go back to their place from time to time
>>66177441
Beautiful, if it was massive and could still manage to be covered in vines that would be amazing
>>66179119
That looks like an oversized toy
late 16th century, nice comfy spot in Mexico City
As old as Hagia Sophia and both Jesus churches, in Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
