Yes, I've already visited Wewelsburg with Tom. Willi

Very nice old bridge, but the bike path is the hit ✌️

The Gaukirche is essentially a Romanesque church building, with important elements from the Baroque period. From the market side, you enter the church through a Baroque gate by the prince-bishop's master builder Franz Christoph Nagel, which is praised as "one of the best Baroque facades in Westphalia". The octagonal tower stands above the middle of the three naves of the pillar basilica. On the south side of the church, part of the Gaukirch monastery is still located today.

In the middle of the market square stands the modern Neptune Fountain, a work by the Paderborn artist Josef Rikus from 1977 to 1979. The fountain stands there as the successor to a historical “Kumpes” with the sea god Neptune, which was destroyed in 1945.

In 1682, Prince-Bishop Ferdinand von Fürstenberg laid the foundation stone for the Jesuit and University Church of Saint Francis Xavier, today's Market Church. After ten years of construction, it was consecrated on September 14, 1692. The post-Gothic design of the church had a major influence on the subsequent church construction of the Weser Baroque period. The Baroque altar, almost 21 meters high and a good ten meters wide, was completely destroyed in the Second World War and was completely reconstructed from 1989 to 2004 in eight construction phases using photos and templates. The cost: around four million euros.

Paderborn is a very beautiful city, there is a lot to discover here. 2 large churches, lots of half-timbered houses and of course the Pader springs.

You can ride on the street, but a trail parking lot as a racing bike highlight?! 🤔😳
