Bremer Dom
St. Peter’s Cathedral in Bremen was initially built on the foundations of earlier structures in the 11th century in the Romanesque style and was later expanded and renovated in Gothic style from the 13th century. Constructed mainly of sandstone, with tuff stone in older hidden parts, the church features brickwork from later Gothic additions. The building underwent significant renovations, including side chapels in the 14th century and partial conversion to a late Gothic hall church in 1502, though further expansion halted with the Reformation. In the late 19th century, a major restoration was undertaken, incorporating Neo-Romanesque elements such as the central crossing tower.
The site, on the Weser River dune, is believed to have been consecrated in 789 by Bishop Willehad, marking the origin of the Bremen Diocese. The original wooden church was destroyed in 792, and later, successive stone churches were built, with notable phases from Bishop Willerich's era. In 1041, the Carolingian church and much of Bremen were destroyed in a fire. Since 1917, the cathedral has been a protected historic landmark in Bremen.
