Andreasstift

He supported the election of his pupil Henry II and thus became sole ruler of Worms.

The complex now centres on the former Andreaskirche, founded between 1180 and 1200 as a three-aisled Romanesque church.

The church's north door shows similarities to the west choir of Worms Cathedral, suggesting it was built at the same time.

In 1800 the monastery and church were secularized and desanctified by Napoleon I, seeing use as a barracks, a hay barn, a fruit yard, a fire station and the base for the town's official carriages.

The complex was almost completely destroyed by Allied air raids in the final months of World War II.
