Namen-Jesu-Kirche, Bonn: Interior

Posted by MadScientist (Düsseldorf, Germany) on 8 May 2009 in Architecture.

Given the impression of a hall church, Namen-Jesu shows a bright, eclectic interior that unites typical "Jesuit Gothic" with Baroque and other style elements. It was built after a design of Giacomo de Candrea* from 1686 to 1717.

We'll have a closer look at the details in the next few days.

*There's surprisingly few information on this builder from Grisons (Switzerland) on the web. If anybody knows details, please let me know.
