      This place is wonderful. The second oldest Church (Dom) in Germany. For something this old, it is very well preserved. You don't have to be Catholic to appreciate the intricate sculptures, stained-glass windows or size of this place.

      Religious things happened in Worms that have changed the world. The "Diet of Worms" took place in the Worms "Dom". In the Dom and outside are interesting things there related to Luther. This is where Martin Luther, a brilliant Catholic monk, was examined by representatives of the Pope for his teachings putting the bible's authority ahead of the Pope. There he made the summary statement, "Here I stand; I can do no other." Also the "Magnus Kirche", just a block from the Dom, is a tiny and very old church worth seeing. It is one of the few oldest protestant churches in Germany. One of Martin Luther's friends preached some of the first protestant sermons there, at great personal danger, just as Luther himself was in. Worms was bombed in WWII and there are pictures of that also in the Magnus Kirche (of all places.) Finally, there's a large "Luther Memorial Church" in Worms. I've never been in it - may or may not be worth seeing. But the prior two things definitely are worth seeing.

      I don't find the exterior of the cathedral really attractive except for the size. We walked around the church and could not gain entry into the building. My main purpose there was to get to the park next to the Dom where Martin Luther was called to response to John Eck's questions at the Diet of Worms. I was fortunate to find the small gate next to the main gate opened and managed to slip in for a walk. The garden was well maintained but the lawn was covered with leaves as it was fall and it took us quite a while to locate and "unearth" the plague where Martin Luther purported to stand trial at the Diet of Worms. I would only recommend this site to people who are interested in the Christian Reformation history. Other than that, there is nothing worthwhile to see.

      Beautiful Medieval Cathedral! If you're a history buff, love ancient architecture or religious (I'm not) you'll really appreciate a visit to this grand building.

      Dominates city of Worms. Truly one of Europe's oldest and greatest cathedrals. Very well preserved. You can walk around most of cathedral and see spectacular alter, organ, and stained glass. You really get a feeling of ancient times in this cathedral.

      First things first: I have to put a disclaimer on all my Worms reviews. If you're not interested in Christian/religious history, Worms probably won't impress you. If this does interest you, one could spend anywhere from a few hours to a whole day seeing and taking in the sights. As a family, we saw the Dom (cathedral), the Jewish cemetery and synagogue, and the Martin Luther memorial (Lutherdenkmal). We also shopped and ate lunch. We parked near the dom and walked everywhere and were there about four hours. Now, if you're really interested, there's tons to read and see and you can be leisurely, even take a tour. We, on the other hand, saw what we needed and were on the road again.Now, on to the review of the dom. It reminded me a lot of Mainzer Dom (Mainz cathedral), made of reddish rose quartz and rising right out of the square. To be honest, there wasn't much to see inside. Some of the stone carvings along the front right were impressive, and the sheer size was impressive, but don't expect too much. I originally rated this with four circles, but downgraded it to three. This was due to the fact that a place I wanted to see (close to the dom) was unavailable. The park right next to the cathedral is where the original palace stood where Martin Luther was forced to answer for his viewpoints opposing the Catholic church, during the Diet of Worms in 1521. According to the map provided by the local tourist information point, there was a plaque in this park commemorating Martin Luther's response to the Diet. However, the park was gated no matter which direction I tried to get in. I know this may not be the fault of the dom, but nonetheless I didn't get to see something I thought was important to see. The good news is, there is parking and a tourist information point relatively close to the dom. They have brochures on the Lutheran/Reformation, Jewish, and other various historical points in Worms. As I stated before, we walked to all the places we wanted to see. I would suggest that, it wasn't difficult. As I said in the beginning: if you're going to see Worms, see the Dom, but don't come if you're not interested in seeing everything in Worms. The dom isn't THAT impressive.

      Wonderful! The cathedral is huge and is more than 1000 years old. It's from Medieval age! The architecture is fantastic!

      Very interesting about the only thing worth seeinf in Worms. Seems to have survived the assault on Worms by the RAF.

      This cathedral is very impressive and gave us an opportunity to learn some of the history of Martin Luther. We did not really allow enough time in the town to explore all it has to offer. I would visit again.

      Impressive but very austere given the war damage. But it is the context that really matters. The local area is the core of things to see in Worms. I managed to survic my husband's jokes about the 'Diet of Worms',
