from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Passion window in Magoar

The Passion Window in the Catholic Church of St-Gildas in Magoar , a French parish in the Côtes-d'Armor department in the Brittany region , was created in the third quarter of the 16th century. The stained glass window was added to the list of architectural monuments in France in 1984 as Monument historique .

The central window in the choir was created by an unknown workshop. It shows various scenes from Jesus' ordeal .

The window was restored in 1900 and 1993, but today it is no longer possible to determine when the sequence of scenes was exchanged or when scenes were removed.
