Summary
[edit]Description18 June 1815 – Waterloo – Saint Joseph's Church.jpg |
English: To visitors, Saint Joseph's church is now principally known as a shrine for the Twenty Seven Commemorative Tablets dedicated to British and Dutch victims of Napoleone Buonaparte.
Saint Joseph's was initially built in 1687-1690 as "Royal Chapel" (royal, in honour of King Charles II of Spain), modified and expanded a few times over the centuries, one last time in 1855-1858 : on that occasion, all the commemorative tablets have been moved into the ailes, newly added to the nave. |
