Dom St.Peter und Paul in Brandenburg

The Dom St. Peter und Paul stands as the largest medieval church in Brandenburg, featuring red brick walls with white accents and Gothic vaulted ceilings.

Construction of the cathedral started in 1165 as a Romanesque church, evolving from a single-nave structure into a three-aisled basilica during subsequent centuries.

The cathedral museum contains artifacts from multiple periods, including stone epitaphs of clergymen and the Bohemian Altar from 1375 depicting biblical scenes.

The cathedral holds regular Protestant services and contains a Wagner organ from 1725 with 33 registers that maintains its original configuration.

The cathedral archive, established east of the Elbe River, preserves the earliest documented reference to the city of Berlin within its collection.
