A look into the Trikonchos, the cloverleaf structure of St. Maria im Kapitol, Cologne. The forked crucifix (Crucifixus dolorosus) in the Northern chapel is special: it was made in 1304 and is considered to be one of the most expressive woes crucifixes of the Gothic period (detail at Wikipedia).
My (old) coffee-table book of selected postings.

@Müge: Thanks very much, Müge!
@Lilly: That's right - it is the largest Romanesque church in Cologne (100m long, 40m wide). It takes a while to follow its walls.
@Marie LC: Thanks a lot Marie! I will continue this series tomorrow, don't miss!
@akarui: This church has a very pure style, indeed.
@Ronnie 2¢: And the best thing: it's open and you just may come in and have a visit. Isn't that great to have such amazing places, just so?
@dang: I still have this UV filter on my lens...
@Twelvebit: Definitely. :)
@dang: Thanks! :)
