Small chapel reflected in a roadside convex safety mirror near Heiligenblut am Grossglockner, Austria. #176486904
Description
Roadside convex safety mirrors are widely used by both commercial and private properties to help eliminate blind spots on approach roads, junctions and entrances. Convex mirrors are ideal for use in road safety applications, because the domed effect of the mirror will give a wider angle view and allows the driver to see down the road from a wider range of parked positions. Heiligenblut am Grossglockner, in Slovene: Sveta Kri and in English: Holy Blood, is a municipality in the district of Spittal an der Drau in Carinthia, Austria. The Gothic pilgrimage church dedicated to Saint Vincent of Saragossa, with its prominent spire, was built between 1460-1491. The church also houses a late-Gothic winged altarpiece from 1520, and a crypt and tomb containing Briccius` mortal remains. Frederick Briccius was a Danish knight who brought here in 914 AD a flask of the Holy Blood from the Hagia Sophia in Constantinople. Austria, Europe
