Vanderbilt Presbyterian Church


This church and its very high, pointed steeple always calls to me.  
It is on Immokalee Road in Naples.


It reminds me of the wooden Seiffen Church that is
such a common ornament in German Christmas scenes.

  3. I checked your link, and you're right; there is a remarkable similarity between the two churches. PS. Where are your South African photos??!!!

  4. I did not know the name of the Seiffen churches until reading your post, but we bought a music box shaped like one of those churches at the Chriskindle Market in Nuremburg years ago, as a present for Julie's mother.

  11. That's a beautiful picture. The gray skies and dark palms create a solemn but exotic feel.
