Three really big Churches

On the last two days of the excursion we went to see the three largest Cathedrals in Germany. The first stop was the Aachen  Cathedral. It is the church that Carlaman built part of . It later had two more sections added to it. The church still holds the bones of Carlaman.

Next we went to the Cologne Cathedral. It is the Largest Gothic Cathedral in Germany and one of the largest ever built. You are able to climb one of the towers in the cathedral which is 533 steps high.

On our way back to Berlin we stopped at the Magdeburg Cathedral. It was the last of the three big churches. There was alot of work going on in the outside and in the inside they were setting up for a big Chior concert that  was going to be on TV. We weren't able to see much of the church because of this. The art work inside the church was grand and amazing though. The big thing that does draws people to the church is that it holds the tomb of the Emperor Otto.
