Hetitage Route 4: Holy Rosary Church or Kalawar Church

 

                            One of the picturesque architectural designs along Chao Phraya River stands out among other temples and palaces. This magnificent Neo-gothic Roman Catholic Church is dated back to a century ago. It is registered as a historic site by Thailand’s Fine Arts Department. Outside is painted in yellow with the distinctive steeple. Inside remain two holy images, Our Lady of the Rosary and the Corpse of Christ, which are brought by the Portuguese during the war of the second fall of Ayutthaya. The Portuguese settled and built the church as a center of their community. The name Kalawar derives from “Calvary”, the hill where Jesus was crucified and from the Corpse of Christ statue.

H4: Calvary Holy Rosary Church 天主教堂

 

在湄南河畔众多佛寺及宫殿之中,有一座非常特出精美的建筑物,是一座罗马天主教堂,称Holy Rosary church,是一种欧洲新古典主意建筑,已超过百年,而且已得到泰国艺术厅古蹟的註册保护。

教堂外表漆上黄色,最特出是高高的尖形屋顶。

内部的两尊古老塑像,现在还用来举办宗教仪式。一尊是圣母塑像,一尊是耶苏的圣体塑像。

这两尊塑像是大城王朝时期第二次沦陷时,葡萄牙人从大城搬运来此地,建立此教堂,作为天主教徒们,心灵寄托中心。Calvary 是耶苏被钉在十字架上那个山丘的名字,得自教堂内耶苏圣体塑像。
