Story · Cathedral of St Peter

You're standing on the Fleischmarkt in the old heart of Bautzen, with the town hall behind you. In front of you rises St Peter's Cathedral. Start with the tower. That Baroque crown was added in 1664, after a great fire swept the town. The rest of the church is older and mostly Gothic.
