Okay I'm writing a novel mostly set in a fictional small city/very large town in France (don't tell me to use a real one, there're reasons I want a fictional city).
A character investigates the grave of a saint who was buried in this cathedral in the 14th century. A few questions:
A character investigates the grave of a saint who was buried in this cathedral in the 14th century. A few questions:
- The cathedral is named after St. Longin (or St. Longinus) and I'd like a prominent statue of him to be clearly visible when you walk in. Where would be an obvious spot?
- My character also visits the tomb of a prominent bishop also buried at the cathedral. Where would his tomb likely to be?
- This fictional saint I was imagining buried in a relatively simple stone tomb build into the wall of the cathedral, with a stained glass window above. Does this make sense? And if so, where in the cathedral would such a tomb likely to be? The stained glass window had originally been rather generic but was later replaced with one about this saint after he was canonized.
