The ‘old’ Romanesque cathedral still stands and is a glory in its own right #cathedral #Salamanca #catedralvieja #romanesque (at Catedral de Salamanca)

TheBasilica of Saint-Remi in Reims, France, is medieval abbey church that was founded in the 11th century. It is named for St. Remi (Remigius in English), a 5th century bishop of noble birth. His father was the Count of Laon, and his mother was the daughter of the Bishop of Soissons. (Let that sink in.) As a young man, he was such a devout and gifted scholar he was elected Bishop of Reims at the age of 21, even though he was not a priest. So, he was ordained and consecrated bishop in the same ceremony. (I suppose it didn’t hurt that his grandfather was a bishop.)
Remi befriended Clovis, King of the Franks, and eventually baptized him in 496, thus bringing Christianity to the Franks. His tomb is in the basilica.

Højerup Church, Denmark.
The first records date back from the year 1250.
In 1928 the church collapsed and fall into the shore, but it has been restored since then, and looks beautiful.
