Exceptionally interesting church building with tower. Major renovations in 1809 and 1957. Roman Catholic Church dedicated to St. Lodewijk, originally a chapel of St. Jacobsgasthuis. In 1632 part of the Saaihal transferred here. In 1762 designated as the Saaihal. In 1810 after major renovations put into use as a Roman Catholic Church. Organ front made in 1769 by J.J.Mitterreither. b. Organ case by I.Reichner, made in 1806 for the Remonstrant Church in The Hague and transferred to the Roman Catholic Church in Krommenie in 1864. In 1957 the Vermeulen company placed this case in the Lodewijkkerk. This case contains the instrument that stood behind the Mitterreither front from 1769 to 1957. The instrument contains a lot of pipework from around 1700. The Roman Catholic Lodewijk Church at the Steenschuur has undergone a major restoration. The church has also been completely painted. But the Mittereither organ in particular has been restored. This organ originally stood in the clandestine church at the Appelmarkt, near the Nieuwe Rijn. During the gunpowder explosion in 1807, the cloth hall at the Steenschuur was converted into a Catholic church by order of King Lodewijk Napoleon. Hence the name of the church. When the church was finished, the organ was moved from the church at the Appelmarkt to the new Lodewijk Church.

Lodi Cathedral

Lodi Cathedral

Lodi, IT

The Cathedral of Lodi is one of the largest Romanesque churches in Lombardy and the oldest monument in Lodi: the foundation stone of the building was symbolically laid on 3 August 1158, the day the city was founded. The first phase of its construction dates back to the period between 1158 and 1163; the crypt was solemnly inaugurated with the translation of the relics of Saint Bassianus in 1163, in the presence of Emperor Frederick Barbarossa. A second phase took place between 1170 and 1180, but the façade was not completed until 1284. Subsequent 18th-century restorations carried out by the architect Francesco Croce changed the original appearance of the building, which was however restored in 1958-1965.
