Media
The former Benedictine Abbey Allerheiligen its abbey church consecrated around 1106 and its cathedral tower dating from the second half of the 12th century, is one of the few well-preserved Romanesque monastic complexes in Switzerland. Around 1090, the foundation stones were laid for a large, five-nave cathedral. However, construction stalled at the foundation stage, and the present cathedral was built in its place. The cathedral tower was built around 1150; the spire is Late Gothic. In 1524, the Benedictine abbey was dissolved and the cathedral became a parish church. Today, the cathedral serves as the place of worship for the Evangelical Reformed parish of Schaffhausen-Münster and also functions as a concert hall.
