The church offers the chance to see multiple stylistic overlays as tastes in interior religious art and decoration changed over the years. I was impressed by the main altar, pulpit, and a older painted altar backdrop that is displayed in a side chapel. On a sober note, the names of members of the parish who died in WWI and WWII are displayed on several sets of plaques, the casualty toll is huge. Access to the tower was not an option on my visit possibly due to COVID19. Admission is free.

Located about half a kilometer from the main Altstadt, St. Wiperti church would be well worth visiting for its restored main section, but there is also a truly ancient crypt below/behind the altar that is unique. Following limitations on flash photography, my iPhone was still able to bring to life the feeble remnants of the frescoes in the crypt. A short explanatory card in multiple languages is available to explain the church’s history to include its deconsecration and now restoration. All in all, a good remembrance of the early introduction of Christianity to northern Germany. There is no admissions charge; was unable to find out when RC mass is said at this church.

The cathedral is more than thousand years old and is located high above the old town with a beautiful view of the surroundings. The treasury in particular is of interest. Due to present covid 19 measures you may experience waiting time, but it is definitely worth seeing. The cathedral is undergoing some construction and the temporary entrance is via the Pastorentreppe.
