Osnabrueck - Cathedral St. Peter

The bishop´s see was founded by Charlemagne around 780. The first church here, was destroyed by the Normans about 100 years later. After a great fire, that burnt down most of the town around 1100, the cathedral was built over a long period, so it is a mix of late- romanesque and gothic style.

The old cloister, next to the cathedral St. Peter, houses the graveyard today.
