I enjoyed this guided tour: the speaker knew his stuff, speaking clearly and with a sense of engagement and quiet humour. The information was well chosen, well balanced, informative and interesting, from the human story of the family, the architecture and art to the more detailed stories of the stained glass windows. A good idea well delivered. The pictures were very good, clear and I liked the different viewing options. Thank you.
