Some buildings are active parish churches; others are museums, monuments or ruins. Use each profile’s visiting notes to understand the place, and give services, weddings and private prayer their space.
A quiet square, a carved portal or a bell tower can make a lovely stop even when the doors are closed. Visitor admission and access to towers, museums or chapels may be separate from the main church.
Take your time with tiled walls, stone carving and gilded altars. Follow the building’s signs on photography, flash, clothing and restricted areas; a beautiful interior is still someone’s place of worship.
