A beautiful, very large and spacious church. There is a wonderful organ. Beautiful concerts are held. Today 20 July the Seneghe choir together with the Bamberg choir sang together in Sardinian and German. It was beautiful and exciting.

Simple, beautiful church in the heart of Bamberg. It impresses with its simple and elegant furnishings. Definitely worth a visit.

Magnificent from the outside, simple and bright from the inside. Especially at Pentecost, the church was wonderfully decorated with green branches. The church certainly cannot be compared with the cathedral, but it is still worth a visit.

A very original church with a long history. The sound is very interesting when playing the organ, the square structure allows you to hear wonderful tones of music. The Stephanskirche in the old town of Bamberg is the only Protestant church that was consecrated by the Pope (Benedict VIII). He was consecrated at Easter 1020 in the presence of Henry II. The monastery was founded in 1007/09 by Bishop Eberhard I of Bamberg, possibly on the instructions of Empress Kunigunda. Today's building was shaped by three construction periods. The oldest part is the tower with a roof from 1698. The choir from 1628 was built by the builder Giovanni Bonalino, the church in the shape of a Greek cross with three additional cross beams by Antonio Petrini in 1678-1681. Petrini preserved the original floor plan from the 11th century.
