Travelling to Cologne

Travel to Cologne

The towering Gothic cathedral dominates this mosaic of a city, made up of coloured houses, medieval city gates and a dozen Roman churches; where ancient monuments rub shoulders with contemporary architectural design.
Cologne (Köln, in German) is one of the oldest cities in Germany. The architectural gems scattered across the city illustrate Cologne’s unique cultural heritage. The best way to get a feel for the place is to wander round the city centre. Head for the imposing Gothic cathedral, or Dom: listed as a Unesco world heritage monument it is perhaps the most famous building in Germany.
