BASILICA ST GODEHARD

HILDESHEIM

GERMANY

Benedictine abbey where St Gotthard, abbot of Niederalteich and bishop of Hildesheim, lived and has been buried. The romanesque church has been beautifully preserved.

"Whoever undertakes the government of souls must prepare himself to account for them.”

- St Benedict

My late evening winter visit is witnessed by the poor quality of the photos above. The basilica was already closed and I only quickly walked around.
