About Bamberg Cathedral
Bamberg Cathedral, known in German as the Bamberger Dom, stands in Bamberg, Germany. It is the seat of the archbishop of the Archdiocese of Bamberg, and it was completed in the 13th century. Since 1993 it has belonged to the UNESCO World Heritage Site called "Town of Bamberg".
King Heinrich II (Henry II), who later became emperor, founded the cathedral in 1002, and it was consecrated in 1012. Fires destroyed the first two cathedrals, in the 11th and 12th centuries, and the present structure is late Romanesque and has four large towers. Henry II and Cunigunde, his wife, are buried there, and they are the only imperial couple ever canonized. Pope Clement II (1005–1047) is buried there as well, in the only papal grave found in Germany, or anywhere north of the Alps.
Its length is about 94 m (308 ft). It is 28 m (92 ft) broad and 26 m (85 ft) high, with four towers that each reach about 81 m (266 ft). Among its works of art is the marble tomb of Henry II and Cunigunde, carved between 1499 and 1513 and regarded as a masterpiece by the sculptor Tilman Riemenschneider. Another treasure is the equestrian statue called the Bamberg Horseman (Der Bamberger Reiter).

- Four tall, thin spires
- Each of the four towers ends in a tall, thin spire. Print friendly adapts thin tips to the print scale, and a layer height of 0.12 to 0.16 mm with slow printing keeps them crisp.
- Arched windows and roof details
- The towers are lined with rows of small arched windows, and the roofs carry small raised details. A larger print size or Full detail keeps more of them.
- One piece with the ground
- Bamberg Cathedral is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
