The incongruity of this place is overwhelming, when asked about the church sitting
in what is almost open countryside, having only seen it in passing, the answer was,
"you should see the inside!" Just the exterior alone is imposing enough,
made from brick, with two marvelous sculptures above the main doors with its twin
belled spires, this is a really impressive building. So with business wrapped up
in Humboldt, back I came to see "what's inside." Nothing can prepare a
visitor for a scene like this, even seeing the pictures on these pages, only gives
you a hint of the majesty of Assumption Roman Catholic Church of Marysburg.
To let you look around I have prepared a QuickTime
VR that once loaded, and that takes a moment or two because it contains two panoramas.
One from the centre of the nave and the second from the balcony. I was going to let
you click and see various highlights with in the church from the panoramas, but this
would dramatically slow down the download speed, so you will have to go through the
individual pictures on the pages that follow.
Once loaded, you will see the alter at the front of the church, use your mouse to
steer around the interior of the building. By pushing the control
key you will zoom out and by pushing the shift key you can zoom in. When
you get to the back of the church, move your cursor up toward the round stained glass
window and you will notice the cursor changes to an arrow.
Click, and you will find yourself up in the balcony, looking down into the building.
As you move around, once again you will find the cursor turns to an arrow
indicating the location where I was standing when I photographed the main section
of the church, click there and you will move back down
to that main level.
