2 reviews of Cathedral of Our Lady

The Cathedral of Konstanz

The highlight of the Cathedral of Our Lady (Münster Unserer Lieben Frau) is the eleventh century crypt which houses gold discs of Constancia, 4 gold discs originally on the outer wall of the choir. The largest is called Christ Pantocrator and is from the year 1000, the other 3 go back to the early thirteenth century. Opposite there's the sarcophagus of San Pelayo, tenth century. The cathedral gardens house the Mauritiusrotunde, a replica of the tomb of Christ in Jerusalem dating from 940. The center is occupied by a Holy Sepulchre, which was a pilgrimage departure and arrival point in the Middle Ages.

Highlights are the access to the Cathedral via a double portal (late gothic style), the size of the 'Christ of Konstanz' and the impressive views of Lake Constance from the Cathedral 's tower.
