The
beautiful
St.
Petri
Cathedral
in
Bremen
is
a
Romanesque
church
building
made
of
sandstone
and
brick,
which
was
built
from
the
11th
century
on
the
foundations
of
older
predecessor
buildings
and
has
been
rebuilt
in
the
Gothic
style
since
the
13th
century.
Side
chapels
were
added
in
the
14th
century.
In
1502,
the
redesign
into
a
late
Gothic
hall
church
began,
but
it
did
not
get
beyond
a
new
north
aisle
when
the
Reformation
stopped
further
extensions.
In
the
late
19th
century,
the
building,
which
was
well-kept
inside
but
looked
shabby
on
the
outside,
was
extensively
renovated,
one
of
the
two
towers
of
which
collapsed.
The
design
was
mainly
based
on
the
existing
and
old
representations,
but
some
innovations
were
also
designed,
such
as
the
neo-Romanesque
crossing
tower.
Today
the
church
belongs
to
the
Evangelical
Lutheran
cathedral
parish
of
St.
Petri.
It
has
been
a
listed
building
since
1973.
A
must've
seen
in
Bremen.
