    The Kiliansdom is the largest of 61 churches in Würzburg and the most famous church building in the city. Directly adjacent to the left side since 2003 is the Museum am Dom with a permanent exhibition of old and new art. In the right area behind the church building is the historic Burkardushaus, which was rebuilt from 2011-2015 to a conference center.

    Every year, a commemorative is held to commemorate the bombing of the Allies on 16 March 1945, which almost completely destroyed the city of Würzburg. This is very impressive and emotional especially in front of Kiliansdom.

      The Würzburg Cathedral is the center of the largest pilgrimage in the diocese every year, when thousands of believers flock to Würzburg to commemorate Kiliani, Kolonat and Totnan in the Kiliani pilgrimage week of the three Franconian apostles. For this purpose, the shrine with the heads of the saints of the Neumünster Church, where he is otherwise in the crypt over the year, is solemnly transferred to the cathedral. The history of the pilgrimage can be read here. A detailed description of the cathedral, its sights and its history can be found at dom-wuerzburg.de.

        As with other highlights, numerous images have been uploaded that have nothing to do with the Neumünster.
        Unfortunately, komoot's scoring system still rewards those spammers!
        I think it's bad.
