Straubing - St. Peter
The Romans have been here -on the banks of the Danube- for about 400 years. When they withdrew a group of Bavarii settled here, lead by a person named Strupo. Accordingly the settlement was called Strupinga - and today is Straubing. The market place, seen before is about 500 meters east n the "new town", the old center was here, all around the Carolingian predecessor of the church of St. Peter, seen here.
St. Peter, built around 1200, is a Romanesque basilica. Since ceturies the church is surrounded by an old graveyard. The structure of the church looks very "complete", what is the result of the reconstruction of the 19th century. Upto then the towers were not finished - and the higher one was decorated with a Baroque onion dome since about 1700.
Fortunately the carvings of St. Peter have survived the times of modernisation. Carvings like this tympanum of the western portal, the main portal to the basilica. The Romanesque carvings of this portal, probably created by the same artist, who carved the southern one, caught my interest some time ago and so I did the detour to Straubing.
