On our way to refresh some childhood memories in the hills of the Pfalz (Palatinate) we stopped in Speyer for a quick visit to the famous cathedral.
The cathedral was founded in 1030 by the Holy Roman emperor Conrad II. It contains a unique crypt and the tombs of eight German emperors and kings and three empresses.
