The design broadly follows the plan that was established at <a href="/wiki/St._Michael%27s_Church,_Hildesheim" title="St. Michael's Church, Hildesheim">St. Michael's Church</a> in Hildesheim and set the standard that was to be generally adopted in the <a href="/wiki/Rhineland" title="Rhineland">Rhineland</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-ICOMOS_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ICOMOS-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This comprised a high vaulted nave with aisles, with a domed crossing towards at the east which terminated in an apsidal chancel. The horizontal orientation already points to the development of the Gothic architecture. The western end terminates in an elaborate structure known as a "Westwerk" including the main portal, a feature typical of many Romanesque churches. Other German Romanesque churches, such as <a href="/wiki/Worms_Cathedral" title="Worms Cathedral">Worms Cathedral</a> have an apse at both ends. Externally, the silhouette of the building is balanced by two pairs of tall towers which frame the nave at the western end and the chancel to the east, and form a sculptural mass with the dome at each end, creating an "equilibrium between the eastern and western blocks".<sup id="cite_ref-ICOMOS_2-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ICOMOS-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The majority of its features are still the same exterior but the interior has undergone many renovations supporting the foundation but changing the interior greatly. </p><p>The exterior appearance of the cathedral is unified by the regularity of the size of its openings. Speyer has the earliest example in Germany of a <a href="/wiki/Colonnade" title="Colonnade">colonnaded</a> <a href="/wiki/Balcony" title="Balcony">dwarf gallery</a> that goes around the entire building, just below the roofline. The same type of gallery also adorns the eastern and western domes. The openings in the gallery match the size of the paired windows in the towers. The domes are both octagonal, the roof of the eastern one being slightly ovoid. The towers are surmounted by "Rhenish helm" spires. The nave, towers and domes are all roofed with copper, which has weathered to pale green, in contrast to the pinkish red of the building stone, and the polychrome of the Westwerk. </p><p>Internally, the nave is of two open stages with simple semi-circular Romanesque openings. The <a href="/wiki/Arcade_(architecture)" title="Arcade (architecture)">arcade</a> has piers of a simple form, each with a wide attached shaft, the alternate shafts carrying a stone arch of the high vault. The square bays thus formed are groin vaulted and plastered. Although most of the plasterwork of the 19th century has been removed from wall surfaces, the wide expanse of masonry between the arcade and the <a href="/wiki/Clerestory" title="Clerestory">clerestory</a> contains a series of colourful murals depicting the <i>Life of the Virgin</i>. </p><p>The cathedral has recently undergone fundamental restorations, which cost around 26 million Euros. In addition the frescos by <a href="/wiki/Johann_Schraudolph" class="mw-redirect" title="Johann Schraudolph">Johann Schraudolph</a>, which were removed in the 1950s, were restored and are now displayed in the "Kaisersaal" of the cathedral. </p> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerycaption">Stages of construction and reconstruction</li> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px;
