Güstrow Dom
The Dom ("cathedral") is a Brick Gothic Lutheran church, the largest church in the German city of Güstrow. It was built as a collegiate church and has never actually been a cathedral. Initially completed in 1335, the church is the oldest extant building in Güstrow. It houses the sculpture Der Schwebende ("The Floating One"), a war memorial created by Ernst Barlach. The apostle figures by Claus Berg are also very well known. They are also called the Güstrow Apostles
