Druid Hills Presbyterian Church Guided Tour
Thursday March, 18 2010 2:00 PM

Tour this French Gothic inspired sanctuary erected during World War II. What particular concerns plague Gothic structures? How did Medieval techniques and aesthetics create its hand crafted stained glass windows and how will 21st century technology help preserve them? See and hear the workings of the Aeolian-Skinner organ and learn about the challenges of its preservation. Go on an “organ crawl” and finger the console. Also learn how this congregation faces the architectural challenges of creating intimacy in what was one of the largest gathering spaces in the city. Allow about an hour and forty-five minutes for this tour.
