Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Wilhadibrunnen (“Willehadus Fountain”) in Bremen, Germany, in front of the Cathedral before the beginning of its relaunch in 1888. The fountain had been built in 1880 in honor of Saint Willehadus, first bishop of Bremen, melted down in 1942. The "Late Romanesque" portal of the cathedral has instead of a Romanesque tympanum a window with Late Gothic tracery.
Deutsch: Der Wilhadibrunnen vor dem Bremer Dom, bevor dessen Fassade ab 1888 eingreifend restauriert wurde. Der Brunnen war 1880 errichtet worden. Die Statue erinnerte an den Bremer Gründungsbischof Willehad und wurde 1942 als „Metallspende“ eingeschmolzen. Das „spätromanische" nördliche Westportal des Doms hat anstelle eines Tympanons ein Oberlicht mit spätgotischem Maßwerk. Der kreuztragende Christus rechts daneben ist noch leidlich vollständig.
