St. George's Minster (Dinkelsbühl)

Under the motto "Organ at half past", there is a half-hour organ concert every Friday at 3.30 p.m. on the large Rieger organ with cathedral cantor Volker Oertel.

One of the most beautiful late Gothic hall churches in southern Germany with a Romanesque tower portal (1220/30), built 1448-1499 according to plans by Nikolaus Eseler. Eleven pairs of pillars support a varied ribbed vault inside. The high altar with a high-figure shrine tablet (crucifixion scene, around 1490) probably comes from a Bamberg workshop.
Altars: The Sebastian altar (1520) and Trinity altar (1500) in the south aisle, the cross altar (after 1470) and the neo-Gothic Joseph altar (but with an older predella) in the north nave, the ciborium altar with Pieta in the ambulatory (1490) was in the 17th century Destination of numerous pilgrims. Under the organ loft there is a picture of Vespers from the 14th century. The baptismal font, pulpit and sacrament house are artistic stonemasonry from the time it was built. The tracery of the southern choir window, the so-called "pretzel window", is a foundation of the bakers' guild.

The harmonious, bright interior emphasizes the reputation of the cathedral, as one of "the most beautiful late Gothic hall churches" in southern Germany. Eleven pairs of pillars carry a varied ribbed vault. The high altar with a figure-rich chalkboard (crucifixion scene, around 1490) probably comes from a Bamberg workshop. In the southern aisle there are the Sebastiansaltar (1520) and the Trinity altar (around 1500). In the northern nave you will find the Kreuzaltar (after 1470) and the neo-Gothic Josefsaltar (but with older Predella). The baptismal font, the pulpit and above all the sacrament house on the northern choir pillar are elaborate stone carvings from the construction period.
