A 1,000-year-old church built by Otto the Great, who greatly extended the influence of the Catholic Church in Europe as Holy Roman Emperor, has been found under a cornfield in Germany.
Archaeologists uncovered the foundation walls of the large church at the rediscovered Royal Palace of Helfta near Eisleben in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt. The town is famous as the hometown of Martin Luther.
