WELCOME TO FULDA - Tourismus Fulda

19 Fulda’s Sights
The Cathedral [7]
Influenced by Roman Baroque architecture, the cathedral was
built between 1704 and 1712 by the renowned architect Johann
Dietzenhofer. The cathedral is not only Fulda’s famous landmark,
but also the most significant baroque religious building
in the State of Hesse. During construction many parts of the
previous church, the 9th century Ratgar Basilika, were integrated
in the new cathedral. Since 1752 it has been the cathedral
church of the Fulda diocese. The cathedral has retained its great
religious significance up to today due to the tomb of St. Boniface
which is still today an important place of pilgrimage.
