Deep Europe

haven't done a thread like this in years, and just found my old folder again

post cool, lesser-known examples of European architecture

- villages
- churches, abbeys, chapels, places of worship
- ruins
- castles

>Geographical limits for this thread:

Greater Europe, including western Russia and christian caucasus (Georgia/Armenia)

save Turkey for a Deep Middle East thread we'll do tomorrow evening

>RULES
post a pic and SAY WHERE IT IS if it's not in the filename; at minimum the country but the actual name of the place is ideal. Feel free to add interesting historical anecdote to your post
