GEM - Art

The Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul is one of the dominating sites of the historic city of Brno. The cathedral, located on the top of the Petrov hill is a follower of the free-standing Romanesque basilica that was rebuilt as a Gothic cathedral in the 13th century. The overall reconstruction was finished by the Vienna architect August Kirstein in the year 1909, when the cathedral received two towers and other civil adjustments were implemented. Since the 1980s, systematic reconstruction has been underway at the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul. GEMA ART took part in the renovation of the exteriér stone structures, stone sculptures, various tombstones and the original Gothic statues in the Cathedral.
