climb the cathedral
Kaiserdom St. Bartholomäus
Why locals love it
The Kaiserdom Cathedral gives an amazing display of medieval architecture. The cathedral consists of a 95m high tower. The Gothic look of the tower is beautiful, and the small intricate designs carved into it add more depth to its character. To see all this you must climb over 300 steps and reach the top. The view from the top is worth the effort.
