Aachen Cathedral, also
known as the Kaiserdom of Aachen, is one of the most
splendid buildings in
Europe.
Aachen Cathedral is a
church of great historical value. Built by Charlemagne in
805 AD, its unique design has been very influential in the
German church
architecture.

Aachen Cathedral remains one
of the oldest churches in Germany and
contains lots of valuable objects from the Middle Ages. It is a
very important historical site too. Its treasury includes the
Cross of Lothar or the Persephone Sacrophagus. The cathedral
was the coronation church of more than 30 kings.
It was one of the first
sites to enter the UNESCO World Heritage
site. The Cathedral is the main attraction of the city
of Aachen.
