tour d’eben-ezer, bassenge
segunda-feira, novembro 24th, 2008completed in 1963 by local eccentric robert garcet, the tower of eben-ezer in bassenge, belgium, was built using flint from a local quarry and contains 7 floors and 4 towers, each of the towers representing a different horseman of the apocalypse. on top of each tower then stands a grotesque which represents a different cherub of the apocalypse. and they’re stunning. in comparison to the size of the tower itself they’re gigantic and are the first thing you notice no matter which angle you approach from, leering over the top as if ready to pounce.
