Matthias Chapel

Kobern-Gondorf/ Mosel

-please see at original size-

Matthiaskapelle (probably dates from the 13th century) next to the Oberburg in Kobern. Built as a six-sided, late Romanesque reliquary chapel for the head of St. Matthias (now in Trier).
Its shape and interior are modeled after churches in Jerusalem (Mosque of Omar, Church of the Holy Sepulcher)
