Watch: Over five and a half million pieces of glass and marble were used to create these stunning mosaics at Cork church
A mosaic at St Francis Church, depicting Christ seated at the centre of a Byzantine cross.
What’s that Mediterranean-like building right off Washington Street?
I’ve always been fascinated by the copper domes of St. Francis Church, they are visible from the top of Widderlings Lane, so I always look out for them when I walk down from Blackpool to the city centre.
I was impressed by the beautiful natural light inside this church, the golden colour coming from the roof and the stained glass windows has a calming effect.
And the mosaics are just stunning!
I was pleased to learn that two Italian artists worked here and completed them, pure art!
Hope you’ll enjoy my visit to St. Francis Church!
