Bremen Cathedral, Lutheran cathedral in Mitte, Germany
The cathedral features twin towers reaching 98 meters high, constructed with dimension stone and displaying both Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements.
The first wooden church on this site was built in 789 by Saint Willehad, marking the establishment of the Diocese of Bremen.
The cathedral museum, located in a side chapel, exhibits medieval sculptures, altar panels, and the notable Arp Schnitger organ from 1698.
Visitors can access guided tours of the cathedral, including the lead cellar where natural mummification occurred due to specific environmental conditions.
Following local tradition, unmarried 30-year-olds must sweep the cathedral steps until receiving a kiss from a person of opposite gender.
