点评:We visited Framlingham Castle and, while speaking to one of the English Heritage staff, we were recommended to go and look inside the church near the castle. After visiting the castle this is what we did. We were treated to a beautiful, and unexpected treasure in both art and architecture.
The church was open and inside there were information sheets that helped you navigate your way around the building.
We took a slow walk around and were amazed by the rediscovered medieval art, the variety of architecture and the imposing design of the tombs. Being able to link the history of the Dukes of Norfolk to this church, gained in the castle, really helped.
The feature that impressed me most was the wooden perpendicular gothic vaulting over the nave. The timing of this vault would have been about the time the Duke moved his seat - so was it made in wood in the hope money would be provided to have it rebuilt in stone?
A fascinating church.
翻译:我们参观了弗雷明汉城堡,在与英国遗产委员会的工作人员交谈时,他们建议我们去看看城堡附近的教堂。参观完城堡后,我们便去了那里。我们惊喜地发现,这座教堂在艺术和建筑方面都堪称瑰宝,令人叹为观止。
教堂对外开放,里面有信息手册,可以帮助游客参观。
我们悠闲地漫步其中,被那些重见天日的中世纪艺术品、风格各异的建筑以及气势恢宏的陵墓设计深深震撼。在城堡里了解到的诺福克公爵的历史与这座教堂之间的联系,让我们对参观这座教堂有了更深入的了解。
最令我印象深刻的是中殿上方的木质垂直哥特式拱顶。这个拱顶的建造时间大约与公爵迁都的时间相吻合——那么,它最初是用木头建造的,是为了将来能筹集到资金用石头重建吗?
这是一座令人着迷的教堂。
