Rebuilding of the Romanesque nave began on the south side c. 1250–70 and was continued on the north side after 1292, the east bay of the nave not being completed until 1307; thus the roof cannot be dated safely before the early fourteenth century although it could belong to the earlier phase: Gloel, H., Der Dom zu Wetzlar (Wetzlar, 1925)Google Scholar.
