A very small door in a big church...


We found a very small door in a cathedral in Essen, Germany. It doesn't look like it in the picture, but the door is lower than 5 foot. It feels very small in the vast space of the cathedral. Where does it lead to? This door is located in a corner, next to the confession rooms.

The mysterious (and fascinating) thing about churches are the doors and gates. Why is that small door there? Perhaps if I look up the history of the cathedral, I may find the answer. Yet for some reasons, there is usually no label for a small (or unimpressive) door.
