One of the world's largest churches and Northern Europe's largest Gothic Cathedral - pretty amazing!!
We climbed all 509 steps up to the top - my legs wouldn't stop shaking for hours!
The most celebrated work of art in the cathedral is the Shrine of the Three Kings, a large gilded sarcophagus dating from the 13th century, and the largest reliquary in the Western world. It is traditionally believed to hold the remains of the Three Wise Men, whose bones and 2,000-year-old clothes were discovered at the opening of the shrine in 1864.
Say Cheese!
Our friend Ben who was staying w/ us for a few weeks came w/ us - hope we didn't bore him too much!
