Romanesque (architecture), listed building / architectural heritage, Roman Catholic church
Through its huge west tower, which has never been completed, the only remaining pillar basilica of Romanesque style in the Rhineland looks like a compact fortress. The tower walls of St. Georg are five metres thick. Thus it seems likely that the tower was originally supposed to be higher.
