Bamberg Cathedral Is Recreated In 3D

Untitled-2

The old German city of Bamberg has a sister city, and that's Prague. The two cities have much in common like gothic and baroque centers and squares with ancient cathedrals - and now they are tied in one more way. Vizerra team has already created the 3D model of the Old Town Square in Prague and now proudly presents a new location – the main square of Bamberg.

Today the model is published on www.vizerra.com and anyone can download it free of charge and see the beauty of the Cathedral in details.
More than 2000 photos became the base of this project. 3DreamTeam has been creating a virtual copy of the square for over two months. Now it gives the opportunity to study the architecture of the Cathedral from all sides, as well as get detailed information provided by the video guide.

Vadim Naumov, head of the group of artists at the 3DreamTeam company, shares his impressions on the project: "I can confidently say - "it was made with pleasure ". I tried to convey as accurately as possible, not only architecture, but also the atmosphere of the city – city's medieval quarters, unique Romanesque cathedral, a theater festival held in the open air patio in the decorations of the "old residences preserved from 16th century ...".

People call Bamberg the “German Rome”, because it stands on seven hills, just like the capital of Italy. The Rome which is a cradle of European culture has numerous museums, monasteries and churches, and Bamberg too can be proud of its heritage, well preserved since the Middle Ages. Of course, we cannot equate the scale of a small Bavarian town with the scale of Rome, but nevertheless Bamberg has the full right to be included in the list of World Cultural Heritage.

But there’s one more connection of Bamberg with the rest of Europe. One of the city areas is called the "Little Venice”. Once upon a time a small fishing village was located there, but now all the area is built up with nice and well-restored XIX century houses. The district stretches along the river bank, and there is a boat mooring next to each house.

We invite you to walk through the central area of Bamberg and learn more about this wonderful city. A lot of Germans would like to live here according to opinion polls!
