New film: Unity in Diversity - Trier Cathedral

The Cathedral Church of St. Peter in Trier is the oldest episcopal church in Germany and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986. 1700 years of religious, architectural and artistic history as well as all European stylistic epochs since antiquity are united in it. Like no other building, Trier Cathedral embodies the history of Christianity north of the Alps - a history of tolerance and living faith, but also of destruction and reconstruction... fascinating and unique!
