Mission San Xavier (3) by stephaniek
The mission was founded in 1699 by the Jesuit missionary Eusebio Francisco Kino, who often visited and preached in the area. The original mission church, located about two miles (3 km) away, was vulnerable to Apache attacks who finally destroyed it in about 1770. Charles III of Spain banned all Jesuits from Spanish lands in the Americas in 1767 because of his distrust of the Jesuits. From this time on, San Xavier mission was led by the more pliable and “reliable” Franciscans. The present building was constructed under the direction of Franciscan Fathers Juan Bautista Velderrain and Juan Bautista Llorenz mainly with native labor working from 1783-1797 with a loan of 7,000 pesos and serves the Catholics of the San Xavier District of Tohono O’odham Nation. Unlike the other Spanish missions in Arizona, San Xavier is still actively served by Franciscans, and still serves the Native community by which it was built. The San Xavier church and its Indian converts were protected from Apache raids by the presidio of Tucson, established in 1775. / / /

The clock tower by annalisa56
The clock tower in Brescia (Italy) The clock tower, built between 1540 and 1550 from a design by Lodovico Beretta, to host a very complex mechanical device (1544-46) able to mark the hours, the moons zodiac signs on two different quadrants. On top of a bronze bell tower, struck by two automata Copper (1581), the so-Macc de le ure ”, marks the time with peals ruled in the valuable and efficient mechanical device (clock). The dial and the gable side of Piazza Loggia was masterfully painted by Gian Giacomo Lamberti in 1547, while nothing is known of the author of the dial is gilded on the opposite side of the tower. Face below the tower is accessed via Beccaria (formerly New Street), opened in 1554 designed by Beretta as a “trade route”, between Piazza della Loggia and Piazza Paolo VI. Camera used: / CANON EOS 450D
