Tabernacle and sanctuary lamp

Church Architecture

This model chooses a central tabernacle on the high altar for Eucharistic reservation. A lamp hangs nearby. The 1917 Code provides historical evidence for reservation and a continuously burning lamp; it is period evidence, not current law or a claim that every church has this placement.
