Guests at the Bess Bower Dunn Museum in Libertyville can view the miniature cathedrals created by Charles Warner and take a virtual tour of their interiors. - Courtesy of the Lake County Forest Preserves by signing up you agree to our terms of service In 1955, he began hand-carving wooden cathedrals with a jackknife and jigsaw, using templates of his own design.

Cathedrals throughout the world serve as monumental symbols of spirituality, authority and architectural achievement. Cathedrals are Christian churches that house the seat of a bishop, though the term"cathedral" is often mistakenly given to any large, important place of worship. Special exhibitions at the Dunn Museum are sometimes traveling exhibits presented by national touring companies. Other times, they are the result of the skill, expertise, and hard work of the Dunn Museum staff, which is the case with"Color and Light: Charles Warner's Miniature Cathedrals."
