Another St. Stephen's Cathedral








St. Stephen's Cathedral, Passau, Germany.

This is another Baroque church in Germany, which was built after the Gothic cathedral on this spot burned down. This one is well known for its organ. My whole tour group got to see an organ concert here, which was fun. At all the other cathedrals they talked about the organ, but we did not get to hear any of the other ones. It is a tourist attraction though, because it is the largest organ in Europe, and I think they said it is the third biggest organ in the world. (The two biggest are in the U.S., which is a fact I did not know.)
