施洗者圣约翰大教堂的点评

2026年09月13日发布于: 海外

点评：There's a reason Saint John Cathedral is #6 of 246 Savannah attraction found on Tripadvisor. This cathedral near Lafayette Square at 222 East Harris Street had humble beginnings in 1799 as a small wooden church. A second church was constructed nearby in 1820. In July 1850 it officially became a cathedral and was heavily damaged by a hurricane a few weeks later. A new cathedral was constructed in 1873 under a name not approved by the Vatican and reverted to Saint John in 1896. Two years later, a fire destroyed the interior. Reconstruction continued for 13 years, and the impressive stained-glass windows were imported from Austria in 1904. Further restorations—most of what is now seen—began in 1959. Not until 1998 were the final embellishments completed.

All that is history. What we see now is astounding exemplified by the accompanying photos. When walking about the famed Savannah squares, it would be a pity not to enjoy an hour or two at one of Savannah’s impressive structures.

翻译：圣约翰大教堂能在Tripadvisor评选出的萨凡纳246个景点中位列第6，自然有其理由。这座大教堂位于拉斐特广场附近，哈里斯东街222号，其历史始于1799年，最初只是一座简陋的木制小教堂。1820年，人们在附近又修建了一座教堂。1850年7月，它正式升格为大教堂，然而几周后便在一场飓风中遭受严重破坏。1873年，一座新教堂拔地而起，但其名称并未得到梵蒂冈的批准；直到1896年才重新改回“圣约翰大教堂”。两年后，……一场大火毁坏了建筑内部。重建工作持续了13年，那些精美的彩色玻璃窗则于1904年从奥地利运来。后续的修复工作——也就是如今我们所看到的绝大部分样貌——始于1959年。直到1998年，最后的装饰工作才全部完成。

这些都已成为历史。如今的景象令人叹为观止，附上的照片便是最好的证明。漫步于萨凡纳那些著名的广场时，若不花一两个小时来欣赏当地那些宏伟的建筑，实在是一种遗憾。
