The cathedral, the treasury, and the cloister offer outstanding cultural and 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 and 1237. The architecture fascinates with its clear language of form. The famous and nameless Bamberg Rider and the sculptures of the cathedral have no equal in Germany: the French influences are unmistakable! None other than Tilman Riemenschneider created the imperial tomb, and Veit Stoß carved the altar of Mary. Through the Gothic cloister, you enter the diocesan museum, which is filled with high-profile sculptures. The world's most important textiles, such as the 11th-century Star Cloak – a masterpiece of medieval textile art, the surviving vestments of Pope Clement II, as well as the largest surviving Ottonian cross, are the highlights of our museum. Cathedral. Treasury. Cloister – Exciting. Inspiring. Experienceable.
