Burghley House was built by Elizabeth I’s Chief Advisor William Cecil 1st Baron Burghley. He had a hand in almost every law, every policy, every decision and most definitely helped push for the execution of Mary Queen of Scots. #statelyhome #tudorhistory #elizbathI #photography

The Rock of Cashel is one of Ireland’s most important historic sites. Legend says St. Patrick banished Satan from a cave on the “Devil’s Bit” mountain, about 20 miles north, and in his fury, the Devil took a bite out of the mountain, with the dislodged rock landing here. #castle #photography

Glorious medieval Cathedral moodiness with light pouring in from the stained glass windows. My idea of heaven.(Girona Cathedral, Spain) #cathedral #churcharchitecture #stainedglasswindow #photography

Inside Manorbier Castle a man named Gerald of Wales was born in 1146. Gerald was an incredibly important cleric and chronicler had insightful and often opinionated writings. He vividly documented the medieval world, offering a glimpse into its diverse cultures and landscapes. #history #wales #castle

Siena Cathedral is one of the most incredible structures I’ve ever seen in my life. The marvel of the different colours of marble, the floors, the art… it has gone in to my top three of all Cathedrals in the world. #cathedral #photography #italy

Raby Castle is a super beauty! The kitchen was built in 1360 and was used continuously for 600 years!! There is also a passageway from the kitchen that was used as a serving route to the Baron’s hall and ALSO a defensive route for soldiers guarding the castle. #castle #history #photogtaphy

Listen…I know vertical photos do better here. But Bahumbg! It is a very rare occurrence for be able to see Cathedrals without the seating. This was a special moment right before Worcester Cathedral was closing and they had JUST finished cleaning the floor. #cathedral #photography

This is Culzean Castle in Scotland, pronounced “Cull-ain”. Following WWII, the then General Dwight D. Eisenhower was offered the use of an apartment on the top floor of Culzean Castle for his lifetime, in recognition of his wartime contributions. #castle #photography #Scotland

Sacré-Coeur ….the second most touristed place in Paris besides the Eiffel Tower…with one of the largest mosaics in the world. A super beauty! 💚 #parisphotography #churcharchitecture #photography #history

Peterborough Cathedral…the final resting place of Katherine of Aragon and the original resting place of Mary Queen of Scots. Neither of these women got the funerals they asked for or deserved. #cathedral #photography #tudorhistory
