In 2024 Bamberg commits the 1000th anniversary of the death of Emperor Henry II, whose influence can still be felt in Bamberg today: he founded the bishopric and the Cathedral and endowed the city with many great art treasures, monasteries and churches. The anniversary offers an abundance of opportunities to experience the vestiges of the past that can be traced back to Henry and his time.
The focus of the anniversary will be on the Domberg - Cathedral Hill - with numerous exhibitions and events in the museums around Bamberg’s Cathedral. In addition, there will be a series of cultural offers and events in Bamberg in 2024 from all genres on this theme.
In addition, the daily city tour "World Heritage Fascination" is a great way to learn more about Henry and his legacy in Bamberg.
