你可曾想过在一间拥有800年历史的古教堂里,登上高高的书架顶层,近距离欣赏教堂穹顶上14世纪的壁画;在唱诗班曾唱赞美诗的地方边饮咖啡边阅读?这里是位于荷兰最南部的小城马斯特里赫特、世界上独一无二的教堂书店——Selexyz Dominicanen Bookstore。刚过九点,巨大的赭红色书型雕塑门缓缓打开,古老的建筑、高大的穹顶、艳丽的壁画与上千种精美书籍同时呈现,书籍与上帝的搭配更显神圣庄严。Ton Harmes是书店的经理,他说:“2001年,荷兰最大的连锁书店集团Selexyz向马斯特里赫特的市议会提出了申请教堂做书店的方案,历史文化典故能烘托书店的文化氛围,而且书店还可以承担保护文物的社会职责。”而在此前,这座教堂曾充当过法国骑兵队的马厩、学生考试教室、汽车展示厅、拳击比赛场地、爬行动物展示会、派对嘉年华等数不胜数的临时角色。
Have you ever thought of climbing the top of a tall shelves in an 800-year-old ancient church, admiring fourteenth-century frescoes on the dome of a church at a distance, reading coffee in the place where the choir used to sing hymns? Here is the southernmost town of Maastricht in the Netherlands, the world's only church bookstore - Selexyz Dominicanen Bookstore. Just after nine o'clock, the huge ocher red book-type sculpture door slowly opened. The ancient buildings, tall domes and colorful murals were presented together with thousands of beautiful books. The books were more or less sacred to God. Ton Harmes, manager of the bookstore, said: “In 2001 Selexyz, the largest chain of bookstores in the Netherlands, proposed to the Maastricht city council to apply for a church bookstore. Historical and cultural allusions can provide a cultural atmosphere for the bookstore. , And the bookstore can also assume social responsibility for the preservation of cultural objects. ”Prior to this, the church served as a stable for French cavalry, student exams, car showrooms, boxing venues, reptiles, party carnivals, etc. Countless temporary roles.
