1960s Ulm Cathedral Germany Poster, the highest steeple in the world, Baden-Wrttemberg, travel tourism holiday vacation wall art decor A charming original vintage travel poster promoting tourist destinations in the of Baden-Wrttemberg region in the city of Ulm on the danube, including the famous cathedral which has the highest steeple in the world of any church. Country: Germany Year:1960s Poster is in three languages, French, English & German. Ulm Minster is a Lutheran church located in Ulm, State of Baden-Wrttemberg (Germany). It is currently the tallest church in the world & will likely remain so until the eventual completion of Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. The church is the fifth-tallest structure built before the 20th century, with a steeple measuring 161.5 metres. Though it is sometimes referred to as Ulm Cathedral because of its great size, the church is not a cathedral as it has never been the episcopal see of a bishop. Ulm Minster was begun in the Gothic architecture of the Late Middle Ages but the building was not completed until the late 19th century after a hiatus of centuries. When work ceased in the 16th century all of the church except the towers & some outer decorations were complete, unlike at Cologne Cathedral, where less than half of the work had been done before construction halted in the 15th century. Visitors can climb the 768 steps that lead to the top of the minster's spire. At 143 m (469 ft) it gives a panoramic view of Ulm in Baden-Wrttemberg & Neu-Ulm in Bavaria and, in clear weather, a vista of the Alps from Sntis to the Zugspitze. The final stairwell to the top (known as the third Gallery) is a tall, spiralling staircase that has barely enough room for one person. Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear & tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, & edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. When framed these colourful & detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time. These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
