Braunschweig Cathedral

St. Catherine's Church was built in the early 13th century. In the second half of the 13th century, the church was transformed into a Gothic hall church as indicated by an indulgence of 1252. One of the towers burst into flames in 1815 after a thunderbolt. Between 1887 and 1890, the city construction officer Ludwig Winter restored the interior of the church. After the destruction of the church during the Second World War, restoration began in 1946. The helmets of the spire and the interior were renewed from 1957 to 1958.

The Church of St. Magnus in Braunschweig was consecrated in 1031, as attested by a document which happens to be the first documentary evidence of the existence of the present-day city of Brunswick. The parish church of St. Magni was rebuilt from 1252, the remains of the original church have been preserved in the foundations. Between 1873 and 1877, the building was restored by Ludwig Winter and painted in the style of historicism by Max Osterloh and Adolf Quensen. The stained glass windows were created in 1926 by Otto Linnemann. During the Second World War the church was severely damaged. From 1956 to 1964 the building was restored.

The church of Saint-Martin was built between the 12th and 13th centuries, with Henry the Lion as its initiator. It was first built as a Romanesque pillar basilica with a cruciform plan, which was transformed into a Gothic hall church between 1250 and 1400. In the 19th century a tower was removed, which stood between the two high towers. Between 1897 and 1899, Max Osterloh carried out extensive renovations. Among other things, the gallery of the south wall was reduced and newly decorated. During the Second World War, the roof frame and the western structure burned down completely. It was not until 1980 that the two towers of the same height were restored.
