Stone, Light, and Medieval Masterpieces

The tour leads to the icons of the cathedral: the mysterious Bamberg Rider, the imperial tomb created by Tilman Riemenschneider, and the sculptures whose French influences make the Bamberg Cathedral unique. The clear architecture of the sacred building and the artistic handwriting of great masters create an atmosphere that not only explains history but makes it tangible.

The Cloister as a Silent Gate to the Cathedral Treasure

Particularly impressive is the transition through the Gothic cloister into the diocesan museum. Highlights await there, such as the star mantle of Emperor Henry II, the vestments of Pope Clement II, and the largest surviving Ottonian cross. Additionally, original sculptures from the cathedral portals and further works by Veit Stoß, Joachim Sandrart, and Marino Marini can be found.
