AZach Posted November 10, 2017 Share #4969 Posted November 10, 2017 Hello Stuart, we are again in the Coimbra University. Checked the story about the statue from “public sources”, it honors the King (John III in english?) that donated his Royal Palace to house the University.

stuny Posted November 10, 2017 Share #4970 Posted November 10, 2017 Well done, Arto. It's your turn, and since you get extra credit I'll be emailing you some gelato. Be certain to open the message before the gelato melts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZach Posted November 10, 2017 Share #4971 Posted November 10, 2017 Thanks Stuart, I just hope that the gelato will not smear my junk mail filter... The next one is, like Coimbra University, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Welcome, dear visitor!

a.j.z Posted November 12, 2017 Share #4976 Posted November 12, 2017 (edited) I think this is the largest wooden church in the world. Edited November 12, 2017 by a.j.z Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZach Posted November 13, 2017 Share #4977 Posted November 13, 2017 Could well be the largest, anyway it is about 300 years old and an unique structure exclusively in wood - nails have been used only to fix the wooden shingles covering the 30+ domes. To win just the name (or location) is required . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Geschlecht Posted November 13, 2017 Share #4978 Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Hello Arto, It is too bad that they are using metal nails to attach the shingles. In the old days people used cedar plugs to attach shingles. The shingles, themselves, were often made of Cedar or Slate. Cedar plugs are lighter & are often more durable than their metal alternatives. And because they are fatter, they hold the slates/shingles better. A larger surface area contacting the slate/shingle, the less stress on any contact point with the slate/shingle.
