SCANDINAVIAN ARCHITECTUEE.

Paet II.

in the vault of the lower storey there is an opening in the centre
about 7 ft. in diameter, which is said to have been formerly filled with
an iron grating. The chancel (which is square externally and inter-
nally, having a small apse and two small vestries) opens into both lower
and upper church by semicircular arches, and thus serves for both.

There was a thircl storey in the roof with stone gables on east face
of the octagon ; the roof is gone, but it may have terminated as that
of the church of Kallundborg (Woodcut Ko. 785).

The church most like this in Germany is perhaps that at Schwartz
Rheindorf (Wooclcuts Nos. 718 and 719). It also resembles the chapel
at Landsberg (Woodcut No. 720) ; but the most extended and indeed
the typical example of a church of this class is St. Gereon’s at Cologne
(Woodcuts Kos. 740 and 741).
