Located in the city of Basel, the Basel Münster is a cathedral of world renown and one of the city’s treasures.

The rest of the building is done in a façade of red sandstone and adorned with intricate window detailing. Done in the intricate Romanesque and Gothic style, the cathedral is sure to inspire a sense of awe and curiosity within you. While the weathered building remains the same, the cathedral has undergone many changes in its function, transiting from a Catholic church to its current status as a Reformed Protestant church. Although this change is not so visible, you will get to see the various touches left by a series of architects from the 10th to the 15th century, who have molded the design into the coherent style that you see today. A trip down to Basel Münster will surely leave you in awe of the architectural marvels that human design has achieved down the centuries.
