In 1985 the cathedral, the cathedral treasure and the neighbouring St. Michael’s Church were declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The main reason for this is the interior, which gives a comprehensive view of the features of Romanesque churches. Many features go back to the term of office of Bishop Bernward. A great era, the Bernwardian Period, was named after him. In addition to many other works of art, he had the Column of Christ and the Bernward Doors created, featuring scenes from the life of Jesus. In the second cathedral building art treasures such as the Azelin chandelier and the Hezilo chandelier were added, which represent Heavenly Jerusalem. During excavations, the cathedral proved to be a real treasure trove. In addition to the foundations of the first Chapel of St. Mary and remains of the Carolingian defensive wall, graves, fabric remnants, shoes, writing utensils and floor patterns from the Middle Ages were found. Furthermore, a bell founding complex from the 18th century was discovered next to the cathedral. Fragments from the Roman Iron Age are proof of the early settlement of the cathedral district.
