Loretto Chapel Staircase

Loretto Chapel Staircase
The staircase makes two complete spirals with no center or side supports. It was constructed by a lone carpenter using hand tools and no nails. He left without seeking payment from the nuns.

Thank you all for visiting and for your gracious and appreciated comments! I wish I could thank each of you personally.
Have a great creative day!

A beautiful capture of a marvelous and famous staircase!
I believe I have seen this in a documentary once, including the story of the craftsman.
