St. Viktor, Gothic cathedral in Xanten, Germany.
The Saint Victor Cathedral stretches over 72 meters long with two west towers flanking the main entrance to this religious edifice.
The cathedral stands on the site of a 4th-century memorial chamber, where remains of early Christian martyrs were discovered during excavations.
Inside the cathedral, visitors can view medieval religious art, including carved altars and stained glass windows depicting biblical stories.
The cathedral opens daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with guided tours in German and English available through advance reservation.
Despite its designation as a Dom, which typically indicates a bishop's seat, this church has never served as the primary residence of a diocesan bishop.
