matroneum

Also, Romanesque are the church round tower and the matroneum.

There is a baroque church from 1701 built there, with an inside matroneum.

Rotating stairs in southern part of the church lead to three-axis matroneum above, containing an organ.

Remains of a fresco of the Last Judgment on the north matroneum were revealed.

As usual for the period, the interior had a matroneum (balcony for female worshippers), now partially disappeared.

The console was independently located in the central part of the matroneum and was the first of such kind in the world.

It contains Gothic wall paintings, painted wooden matroneum from 1726 and painted wooden ceiling.

The matroneum opposite to the pulpit altar is still occasionally called the damsels' gallery (Fräuleinempore), where the conventuals used to sit during services.

After his death in 1540 his successor, Nickel Hoffmann, took over the construction of the western end of the hall and the matroneum.

The women had a separate area, known as the matroneum; in Lorca's synagogue the matroneum was located above the vestibule.

The church is surmounted by two domes, one over the naos and the other over the matroneum (a separate upper gallery for women) of the narthex.

The interior of the church with its wooden coffer, single-storey matroneum and stained glass windows in the chancel is the result of fundamental conversion work in 1876/77.

The crypt is accessed through the door in the right wall of the vestibule, then up to the organ matroneum and finally down through the door on the left wall.

The nave, like the transept, features a trussed ceiling and, at its sides, has a fake passageway (matroneum) under which are corbels with human, animal or bestial depictions.

A matroneum (earlier also matronaeum; plural: matronea or matronaea) in architecture is a gallery on the interior of a building, originally intended to accommodate women (whence the derivation from "matron").

The church, which had been overwhelmed by Baroque additions, has now been restored to the uncluttered beauty of the original Apulian Romanesque in the transept, in the false matroneum, and in the magnificent pulpit rebuilt recently from the same material as before.
