Romanesque in Germany ENG.NABEEL M. AIAD
Romanesque in Germany General characters • Romanesque in Germany started in the 12 centaury more strength • and free from influence of Roman style, or eastern styles • Germans added another apse at the West (the main entrance) and therefore transferred to the entrances of the church to the sides and appears three apses • Details become less and decoration become few, simple but accurate • moldings has a lot of relief's mass formations • Use of simple materials like masonry • Façades are almost smooth • Ratios are accurate, which give strengthen the building • Use of repeated Circular arches • The plan is basilican form with small transepts and the presence of • Apses and sometimes has 2-Ailes at each side • Apses covered with intersective vaults but the Nave covered with wooden trusses ENG.NABEEL M. AIAD
Church plans are peculiar in having both western and eastern apses and thus there are no great western entrances as in France. The reason for these double apses has never been thoroughly explained ; some think that the eastern apse may have been used for the abbot and monks and the western apse for the bishop and laity, or that the western apse may be the survival of the detached baptistery which had been usual in earlier churches. • The general character is of numerous circular and octagonal turrets, polygonal domes, and arcaded galleries under the eaves • Doorways were placed laterally in the aisles and are the most richly ornamented features of the churches, with shafts and capitals boldly and effectively carved. • Vaulting appears late some fifty years after its general adoption in France. • Germany, also has aisless transept and chancel. • A typical Germanic characteristic is the presence of towers framing the chancel and the west end.The paired towers flank each end of the building and have later copper spires.

C . Towers • The towers are basic characters with two, four, or six towers with square, cylinder, or ribbed form • Sometimes octagonal tower rises over the crusading intersection and covered with pyramid roof with small windows underneath • Square towers, divided into storeys by moulded courses, frequently terminate in four gables with rafters rising from the apex of each, and the roofing planes intersect at these rafters and thus form a pyramidal roof with four diamond-shaped sides meeting at the apex • Polygonal towers have similar roofs, but with valleys between the gables and all show the commencement of the evolution of spire ENG.NABEEL M.

D . Roofs • At the exterior used trusses roofs covered with leaden or copper and other coverage materials • At the interior used ribbed or cross vaults painted with deferent colors • the semicircular cross-vault of the nave is of a domical nature, owing to the use of semicircular ribs, which rise to a greater height over the diagonal of the compartment. • The system of including two bays of the aisle in one nave vaulting compartment was generally adopted • Timber roofs were also employed for naves with large spans, ENG.NABEEL M.
