Hello Steemit friends,
the night takes place 🌇 and we the city people need the light like the moths. 💡 The cathedredal of Zwickau or church St. Marien is standing like a beacon in the center for all the night owls.. and is a huge symbol for Christianity. But religious followers by numbers becoming less and less since many years.
Do you see the colorful fairy lights in the following picture?

The pictures don't show that the building is in danger of collapsing 💣 because it's built on sandstone foundation and our town is known for heavy underground mining in the past. There is already a height slope of 40 centimeters in the seating area alone. Huge wooden beams support the church to avoid that the building could tear apart.. 😲 and are necessary to substitute the foundation with reinforced concrete. Basically i think such buildings are more cultural heritage than living religion. We protect the buildings with millions 💰 of Euro to have them als impressive landmark for tourists 👪 and a unique city image we can relate 🏫 to.
