Public Tour Cathedral.Treasury. Cloister
The cathedral, treasury, and cloister offer outstanding cultural-historical as well as moving religious experiences. In 90 minutes, you will experience highlights of European art history. The cathedral was built by the canonized imperial couple Henry and Kunigunde in the early 11th century, burned down several times, and was rebuilt a second time between 1200 to 1237. The architecture captivates with its clear language of form. The famous and unnamed Bamberg Rider and the sculptures of the cathedral are unparalleled in Germany: the French influences are unmistakable! None other than Tilman Riemenschneider created the imperial tomb, and Veit Stoß carved the altarpiece of Mary. Through the Gothic cloister, you enter the diocesan museum, which is equipped with high-profile sculptures. The world's most significant textiles, such as the 11th-century Star Cloak—a masterpiece of medieval textile art—the preserved vestment of Pope Clement II, as well as the largest surviving Ottonian cross are highlights of our museum. Cathedral. Treasury. Cloister – Exciting. Inspiring. Experienceable.
