I dont know if it is the same in English, but a Dom or a Cathedral is normally the seat of a bishop, whereas a church is just a simple place to pray. Cologne has maybe 6 or 7 churches but only one Dom. Every little town has its own church, but a Cathedral or Dom is special - and much bigger.

hi california, strange name for a person..anyway...

mine's just a normal name in my country. it's an abreviation of "spasitel" = "someone who saves people's lives"..No Comment!"""

btw, "Cathedral" is the principal church of a diocese, containing the bishop's throne.

Ahh, thanks for solving that mystery for me!

In england, it's not possible for a town to become a city unless it has a cathederal. So i wondered what exactly was the difference. Now i know.

Thanks.

Ah. here you the the Cologne Dom with his portal towers of 160 meters hight. You can climb the tower on very barrow stairs. For details about the history you can take a look at this page:
