Window on Aachen Cathedral Damaged Yet Again

Stone thrown through choir hall window

Aachen (kath.net/KNA) For the second time within four weeks unknown individuals have damaged the window of Aachen Cathedral. This time, stones were thrown in on Tuesday night by two choir hall windows on the north side of the cathedral, the chapter said on Thursday. Just at the end of January a disk pieces had been broken through by a stone's throw.

According to the information presented by Cathedral Master Builder, Helmut Maintz, the police have again been informed. He estimates the cost of repairs to around 3,500 euros. A window with ornaments in red and blue created by glass artist Anton Wendling 1949-1951 - it had to be repaired in January already. The other window was designed by the glass painter Walter Benner in the same period. The Aachen Cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is the burial place of Charlemagne and an episcopal Church. Mood Music Aachen Cathedral (short video) Trans: Tancred vekron99@hotmail.com Link to kath.net... AMDG

And Arch-Moron Chito (notice the vulgarity of the nickname) Tagle of Manila will no doubt weep rivers that no more refugees are being accepted by a European people who begin to discern how their destruction has been plotted. Archimago

Magnificant church! And between the barbarian hordes, the ones who hate Christianity and the 'progressive; catholic themselves, will such beauty survive? I must remind myself that all things of this world are passing away.

Muslims have been routinely damaging historical churches like Aachen now for some time. I'd think it was obvious what his point is....

All the rocks, bullets and bombs in the world will never prevent the next Holy Roman Emperor from being crowned there and in Reims.
He is officially made Holy Roman Emperor in Rome but will be crowned in Aachen and Reims.
