    Re: Building a small medieval church —Pedro Silva
   (...) I'd add a word here, concerning the evolution of "catholic layouts". I believe that after Vatican II, in the 60's, there was a guideline so that churches would have the altars re-arranged in such a way that the priest would face the (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: Building a small medieval church —Magnus Lauglo
   Pedro, (...) So you're saying I don't necesarily need both an alter and a pulpit if I want to be historically accurate? (...) Just fo rthe record, is a chapel just a small church, or does it refer to an actual part of a larger church? (...) I don't (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.castle)

     (...) Well, that's good to know. I just built the damn thing, I didn't use any particular style as reference. :-) I just knew I wanted the tall windows and "pillar-ish" structures on the sides. -Chris (22 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.castle)
