Costa Pacifica at Malta Pier

Booklet
Costa Pacifica Cruise
Western Meditteranean
Churches

At Easter in 2010 to celebrate his 70th birthday my husband, Alan, and I sailed on the Costa Pacifica  for their Western Mediterranean Cruise .  At each port that we visited, I photographed at least one church in the area.  

Title Page

When we moored in Savona we took the tour to Monaco where I photographed  St. Nicholas Cathedral. In Barcelona, Spain I, of course, photographed Sagrada Familia.  In Palma, Mallorca I

photographed La Seu Cathedral.  In Tunis, Tunisia I photographed Cathedral of St. Louis.  In Valletta, Malta I photographed Our Lady of Victory Church. In Catania, Sicily I photographed  Cathedral of Catania.  I also photographed Trinita dei Monti  and St. Peters during the week we visited Rome before heading to Civitavecchia to board the Costa Pacifica  for our cruise.

Table of Contents

The next year, 2011, I started my Blog "Churches On Sundays" at http://www.churchesonsundays.blogspot.com.  The churches I photographed during our Costa Pacifica Western Mediterranean Cruise became the basis for posts on my Blog published 2011, 2012, or 2013.  These blog posts are presented in this booklet.

"Roman Catholic Radda in Chianti, Tuscany Italy The church was first mentioned in 1260. Damage was so extensive in World War II that only past reports and inventories provided information for restoration. The last reordering took place in 1969 to reorient the main altar in accord with the Second Vatican Council changes. The rectory is inside the church on the left; the Chapel of the Society of St. Gregory the Great and St. Mary of Graces is adjacent on the right of the facade." (Link 1.)

Altar

"...a church of Romanesque origins that houses a venerated wooden Crucifix of the 15 C."  (Link 2.)
