SAINT-PAULIN BASILICA
A late-Baroque basilica in Trier with a rich interior featuring ceiling paintings by the Augsburg master.
Lovers of rococo will be delighted. It's a masterpiece of its kind! The Basilica of St. Paul in Trier is distinguished by its late Baroque style. The interior is extremely rich, and the ceiling paintings by Augsburg master Christophe Thomas Scheffler are not to be missed. Stucco also decorates walls and ceilings. The high altar is a masterpiece from the workshop of Ferdinand Tietz, the famous German Rococo sculptor. The basilica is the successor to an earlier church whose foundations date back to the 4th century.
