Nantes

While I was with the Dominicans, someone offered them a free piano. The catch was that it was in Nantes and they had to move it. I was recruited for this job and as a treat we got to go to the Cathedral there.

Here's the back view of the mansion that we moved the piano into.

Father is discussing the logistics with one of the teachers.

The cathedral of Nantes.

The interior. The French call this sort of cathedral a white cathedral. During WWII, many Cathedrals were bombed accidentally or not. As a result of that, the interiors are extremely plain and all the original stained glass is frequently gone. This particular cathedral also had a massive fire that destroyed parts of the roof as well, so the inside had been quite blackened. A restoration project has cleaned it up quite a bit.

Here's the main center door. There are three doors in front. The statues have been quite damaged by the revolution and bombing.
