The Cathedral [7]<br />
The cathedral, built by Johann Dietzenhofer between 1704 and<br />
1712, is one of the most impressive baroque buildings in <strong>Fulda</strong>.<br />
The cathedral’s great religious significance is due to the tomb of<br />
St. Boniface which is still today a place of pilgrimage.<br />
Concerts in the Cathedral<br />
Prof. Hans-Jürgen Kaiser, the musical director of the cathedral,<br />
organises regular organ recitals – a chance to enjoy the full<br />
sound of the recently restored organ. Besides choral and organ<br />
concerts in the evening, there are also matinee concerts<br />
from 12.05- 12.35 am on every Saturday in May, June, September,<br />

Please note that on these<br />
days, from 11.30 am onwards<br />
