Cathedral of St Peter Description
Near the Stone Bridge in Regensburg lies the Domplatz (Cathedral Square), the hub of the city's life. The Cathedral (Dom) of St Peter (13th-16th C.), with its two tall spires (105m/345ft high) and magnificent west front (1395-1440), is the finest Gothic church in Bavaria. The interior is of great beauty and spatial effect; its most notable features are the superb stained glass (mostly 14th C., restored in the 19th C.) and the figures of the Annunciation (c. 1280-90) on the two western piers of the crossing.

Adjoining the beautiful cloister (14th-16th C.) is the Romanesque All Saints Chapel (wall paintings). On the north side of the cloister is St Stephen's Chapel, which may date from Carolingian times.
