I showed this for Sunday Stamps back in 2017 (!!) - it is a favorite stamp of mine, so here it is again. Chickens on a stained glass window at. the cathedral in Santo Domingo de la Calzada.
There's a fun blog here about someone's visit, and an explanation of the miracle of the chickens.
Thanks again to Eva for sending this excellent stamp. To see more stamps with the theme of glass, explore the links at See it on a Postcard.
Chickens on a church window is indeed a surprise!
ReplyDeleteAn eggsellent one, in my opinion. (I'll see myself out)
DeleteThank you for linking to the blog entry. Chickens!
ReplyDeleteI was looking for the explanation of the miracle, and got a lucky hit - glad. you liked it.
DeleteThis is a favourite of mine, too. I visited Santo Domingo de la Calzada almost thirty years ago, with my parents, and of course all I remember are the chickens in the church :)
ReplyDelete(Seven years ago sending a letter to you cost only 1,35€! I should have sent more then.)
Haha! If there's. one thing for sure it's that the price of postage always goes up
DeleteThanks for the link. It was a wonderful story though I'm not sure I'll be cooking/eating chicken. I think I'd be worried that the cooked chicken would come back alive. My version would be more like Stephen King's "Pet Semetery" 😺
ReplyDeleteTerrifying!
DeleteWell worth sharing again. Super story and an unusual window. You never know what you will find when entering a church.
ReplyDeleteI love the story , the window, and the stamp!
DeleteWhat an amazing story! And a Chicken Church! A stained glass window with chickens would be hard to believe wasn't a joke without your link.
ReplyDeleteWhy was the chicken on the stained glass window? :)
