Audio Guide of the Andreasstift in Worms

The cathedral is generally open every day from 9:00 to 17:45 in summer and from 10:00 to 16:45 in winter. Please note that tourist visits are suspended during Masses and religious services, so I recommend checking the official website of St. Peter's Cathedral before you go.

Admission to visit the inside of the cathedral is free, although a voluntary donation is suggested to support its preservation. If you would like a specific guided tour or access to the Cathedral Museum, a small fee may apply.

A full visit to admire the architecture, the Baroque altar, and the crypt usually takes between 45 and 60 minutes. If you use an audio guide to learn in depth about the history of the Nibelungs and the Diet of Worms, I suggest allowing at least one hour.

It is one of the three great Imperial Cathedrals of the Rhineland and a supreme example of German Romanesque architecture. It is also the historic setting where Martin Luther defended his theses before Emperor Charles V in 1521 and is linked to the legends of the Nibelungs.

To enjoy the majesty of the building without crowds and with spectacular light inside, I recommend going early in the morning on a weekday. Avoid Sunday mornings if your intention is sightseeing, due to religious services.

Yes, the cathedral has step-free access through the south portal, where there is a ramp. However, please note that some specific historic areas, such as the crypt, may have limited wheelchair access.

You are in the historic heart of the city; just a few minutes away on foot you will find the famous Luther Monument and the fascinating Nibelungen Museum. Do not miss Holy Sand either, the oldest Jewish cemetery in Europe, which is very close by.

Do not leave without visiting the crypt of the Salian dynasty; it is one of the most atmospheric parts. So you do not miss any historical detail without depending on groups, I recommend bringing your phone fully charged and using a good audio guide such as those from IAudioguia.com.
