The current Baroque Dom (Cathedral), was erected between 1704 and 1712 to replace the ninth-century Romanesque church. Decorations on the exterior are limited, but the dome and other roof parts are unmistakably Baroque. The interior is bright with typical Baroque touches, but not as fussy as Bavarian Rococo. A major attraction is the tomb of St Boniface. Although his grave has been here since 819, the current Baroque tomb and altar date from 1731.
