What is "kneelers"

Usage examples of "kneelers".

In an alcove cluttered with piles of threadbare tapestry kneelers, tattered hymnals, even a battered piano, stood two tall cupboards.

A carved ivory rail served equally well as a place for the kneelers to rest their hands and as a means to separate the sanctuary from the main chapel.

The high, domed ceiling, the pulpit, and the pews and kneelers clearly identified the room as a chapel, in spite of the dust-covers pulled over the statues and crucifix, and the piles of boxes, buckets, and ladders beside the doors.
