Bamberg - Cathedral


Since 1007, when Holy Roman Emperor Heinrich II (Henry II) made Bamberg the seat of a diocese, the Bamberg Cathedral ("Bamberger Dom St. Peter und St. Georg") is the seat of the Archbishop of Bamberg.
The first cathedral on this place, founded in 1004 by Heinrich II and named "Heinrichsdom", got consecrated already in 1012. This building got destroyed by fire in 1085. Around 1215 the construction of the building seen here started. It was commisioned by Bishop Eckbert von Andechs-Meranien, brother of Hedwig von Andechs (aka Hedwig of Silesia). The new cathedral consecrated in 1237.
Standing on the edge of the elevated eastern "Georgenchor" facing west to the "Peterschor". The total length of the cathedral is 99 meters, of which the choirs alone are 58 meters. So the most space was "reserved" for the episcopal clerics. Since the second half of the 17th century, the cathedral had a baroque interior. During the 1830s, when King Ludwig I of Bavaria had developed a favor for the Romanesque style (what he believed to be a German style), the interior got "purified".
