Together with the cloister and the mortuary, the two-aisled Eichstätt cathedral is regarded as one of the most important medieval monuments in Bavaria. The first Roman Catholic cathedral of Our Lady and Sts. Willibald and Salvator was built in the 8th century. It was destroyed during the Hungarian invasions but the church preserved. Parts of this church have been preserved in the masonry.
The current cathedral has parts built between the 11th century and the 16th century. Bishop Heribert (1022-1042) started the construction in Carolingian-Ottonian style and bishop Gundekar II inaugurated the cathedral in 1060.
The Gothic west choir dates from 1250-1270. The east choir was reconstructed in the late 14th century. The Roritzerkapelle (1463-1480) and cloister (1410) where added later.
The west façade was restored in Baroque style in 1716-1718 and the pulpit was made in 1720. The rococo altar dates from 1745.
References:Doune Castle was originally built in the thirteenth century, then probably damaged in the Scottish Wars of Independence, before being rebuilt in its present form in the late 14th century by Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany (c. 1340–1420), the son of King Robert II of Scots, and Regent of Scotland from 1388 until his death. Duke Robert"s stronghold has survived relatively unchanged and complete, and the whole castle was traditionally thought of as the result of a single period of construction at this time. The castle passed to the crown in 1425, when Albany"s son was executed, and was used as a royal hunting lodge and dower house.
In the later 16th century, Doune became the property of the Earls of Moray. The castle saw military action during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms and Glencairn"s rising in the mid-17th century, and during the Jacobite risings of the late 17th century and 18th century.
