Halberstadt Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Halberstadt, Germany.
The Cathedral of St Stephen and St Sixtus features a 27-meter-high nave, 290 stained glass windows, and French Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.
Emperor Charlemagne established the episcopal site in 804, while the current Gothic cathedral was constructed between 1236 and 1491, replacing an earlier Romanesque building.
The cathedral treasury contains over 600 medieval artifacts, including Byzantine relics, gold items, and the oldest preserved European tapestry in its original location.
The cathedral offers guided tours through its architectural features and treasure collection, with parking available for cars and coaches near the Old Town.
Since 2001, the cathedral hosts a performance of John Cage's 'As Slow as Possible' on its organ, scheduled to continue until the year 2640.
