Fulda Cathedral, Cathedral in Fulda, Germany.

The cathedral stretches 99 meters in length and rises 39 meters high, with twin bell towers reaching 65 meters into the sky.

Construction of the current building began in 1704 under architect Johann Dientzenhofer, replacing the Ratgar Basilica that stood since the 8th century.

The cathedral contains the tomb of Saint Boniface, making it the oldest pilgrimage destination in Germany for religious visitors.

Located 65 miles northeast of Frankfurt, the cathedral opens daily with free admission and extended hours during summer months.

The cathedral features an unusual westward orientation and houses ten bells, including the historic Salvator bell in its towers.
