Begin your journey at Bamberg Cathedral, an awe-inspiring blend of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, also known as the Imperial Cathedral of St. Peter and St. George, is a stunning masterpiece of medieval architecture and one of Bamberg’s most iconic landmarks. Founded in 1002 and completed in the 13th century, It houses the only papal tomb in Germany, that of Pope Clement II, and the famous Bamberg Horseman, a mysterious equestrian statue whose identity remains unknown. With its four majestic towers and rich history, Bamberg Cathedral stands as a testament to the city's imperial past and architectural brilliance. Adjacent to the cathedral lies the Old Court, a former bishop’s residence with a picturesque courtyard perfect for photos.
