 Ulm
is the home of the largest cathedral in Southern Germany. This
magnificent work of engineering and architecture holds the world's
tallest church spire at a height of 161m.
Work began on this cathedral in 1377, and was carried on in
intervals until 1545. It took another 300 years to get
finished, when work began once again in 1844 and the cathedral was
finally completed in 1890. Today this giant Gothic church
measures an astounding 464 ft long and is 159 feet wide. The
massive interior has the capacity to hold 30,000 people.

  Visitors
to the church can pay a small fee to climb the 768 steps up to the
top of the steeple. From the top of the spire you can see the
Alps on a clear and sunny day.
Directions:
From Stuttgart
Take the A8 towards München
(Munich), then turn right onto B10, which takes you right into Ulm.
You can't miss the cathedral, as it is by far the tallest structure
in the area.
The Cathedral is located in the middle of Ulm's downtown pedestrian
area.
