Ulmer Münster

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulm_Cathedral


Ulm Cathedral (GermanUlmer Münster) is a Lutheran church, the tallest church in the world, with a steeple measuring 161.53 m (530 ft) and containing 768 steps. Located in UlmGermany, the church is not a cathedral in the technical ecclesiastical sense, as it has never been the seat of a bishop. (The responsible bishop of the Evangelical Church in Germany resides in Stuttgart.) However, it is a famous example of Gothicecclesiastical architecture and is typically and mistakenly described as a cathedral. After climbing to the top level at 143m there is a panoramic view of Ulm in Baden-Württemberg and Neu-Ulm in Bavaria and, in clear weather, a vista of the Alps from Säntis to the Zugspitze. The final stairwell to the top (known as the 3rd Gallery) is a tall, spiraling staircase that has barely enough room for one person.

Measurements

  • The church has a length of 123.56m and a width of 48.8m.
  • The building area is c. 8,260 m2.
  • The height of the central nave is 41.6m, whilst the lateral naves are 20.55m high.
  • The volume of the edifice is some 190,000m3.
  • The weight of the main steeple is estimated at 51,500 metric tons.
  • The church seats a congregation of 2,000.
  • In the Middle Ages, before pews were introduced, it could accommodate 20,000 people.
  • The Ulm Münster is the largest Lutheran church and the second largest church in Germany (after Cologne Cathedral).
