[edit] Term

Surely it should be Ulm Minster in English, not Ulm Münster? As terms of art, they are a close match. Tacitus 22:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Conflict

These two statements can't both be true:

  • "It has dominated Ulm and the surrounding region for hundreds of years with its 161-metre-tall spire."
  • "The building was finally completed in 1890 with the addition of the spire."

One of them needs to be edited --87.82.23.233 22:25, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

The cathedral was surpassed by the Singer Building, but from there the previous tallest is the Park Row Building. The Cathedral never was the tallest building of the world (Eiffel Tower built in 1889 has 300m), and never was the tallest fully inhabitable building since it isn't inhabitable from bottom to top. It probably was the highest church in the world, needs verification.
