Schleswig Cathedral

Schleswig Cathedral officially the Cathedral of St. Peter at Schleswig, is the principle church of the city of Schleswig and was the basilica of the Bishop of Schleswig until the ward was broken down in 1624. It is presently a congregation of the North Elbian Evangelical Lutheran Church, the seat of one of its religious administrators, and positions among the most significant engineering landmarks of Schleswig-Holstein.

In 850 a minister church was established in Haithabu Hedeby. Somewhere in the range of 947 and 949 Otto I introduced three bishoprics on the Cimbrian landmass: Ribe, Schleswig and in 948 Arhus. After the establishment of the Schleswig ward in 947, the primary house of prayer in Schleswig was fabricated. Today, neither the size nor the area of this house of God is known. In 1134, development of another romanesque basilica started. The work was just finished around 1200, on the grounds that an extra nave was developed that can at present be seen today. Development materials included stone, tuff from the Rhine, and block.
