Cathedral of St Peter's is a considered the most significant Gothic work in southern Germany. The infamous Judensau (Jews' sow) sits outside the church. This statue features three Jews suckling at a large female pig. It faces the former Jewish quarter. Some of the vibrant, stained-glass windows inside the church date to the 13th and 14th centuries. The Mary with Angels statue from 1280 features a colorfully painted Virgin Mary greeting the angel Gabriel. Note that photography is not allowed inside the church.

    If you are into cathedrals by all means visit this St. Peter's. Very old and wonderful. Open to public and free.

    A must for everyone who loves old churches. Was impressed mostly by the windows, made in colored glass. Everyone tells a different story.
