Stiegenkirche, Old Town Graz

The oldest church in Graz, dating to the 14th century. I hadn't expected to give this place its own post, but it is so unusual I need to. The name means staircase church, and the 1st picture is of the entrance staircase that begins between businesses. The 2nd picture is of several bas reliefs in the stairway.
The other 3 pictures are inside the sanctuary. The 3rd picture looks to the main altar in the nave while the 4th picture looks back from the chancel through the nave. The last picture is of a side chapel. After all the baroque and rococo churches, this seems almost iconoclastic.En savoir plus
