Guided Tour for Families

The animal secrets of Trier Cathedral

They sneak through images and frescoes, fly over altars, and shine in stained glass windows – animals that are more than just companions of humans. In Christian art, they carry secrets and meanings. The rooster on the roof, the famous cathedral mice, cute snails crawling over the capitals: This tour invites you to encounter the animals in churches and artworks. We discover how they become mirrors of faith.
