The fourth biggest city in Germany, with over one million inhabitants, Cologne (Köln in German) began life as a Roman colony or colonia (hence its name). Its location on the Rhine, at the heart of Germania, was key to its status as capital of the province. The city became a centre for worship, famous for the legend and cult of Santa Ursula, and built several splendid Romanesque churches, which survive today. By the Middle Ages, Cologne was one of the most important cities in the Holy Roman Empire and in 1248 work began on its mighty cathedral, designed to house the relics of the Three Wise Men. Known as the Dom (pronounced dome), it was once the worlds tallest building and is arguably still the worlds greatest Gothic edifice, attracting pilgrims from all over Europe, even though it was not to be completed for another six centuries. It is still Germanys most visited attraction. The city suffered terribly in World War II, losing most of its historic centre, and only a small proportion of the Altstadt, right by the river, survives, or has been reconstructed in its original form. Modern day pilgrims come not only to the awe-inspiring Dom and Romanesque churches, but to the citys fine museums (featuring rich Roman remains and an important artistic heritage) and to sample the citys famous hospitality in its brewhouses (Cologne boasts more breweries than any other European city). Despite its strong religious background, Cologne has a reputation as a goodtime town and its Carnival is one of the biggest in Europe.

Cologne Altstadt
Steeped in history, Cologne is the cultural capital of the Rhineland and most of its attractions are packed into the cobbled streets of the city's Altstadt.
Cologne Cathedral
If there is one highlight that leaves a lasting impression for every visitor to Cologne, it is the city's magnificent cathedral. Its soaring spires are amongst Europe's tallest, stretching over 515 feet above the beautiful medieval city. The magnificent Gothic giant dominates the paved plaza below and its sheer size and grandeur are breathtaking.
Cologne Roman-German Museum
Cologne's Roman-German Museum is home to an astounding collection of historic relics and cultural artefacts dating back to Roman times and the early Middle Ages, and is one of the most famous in Germany.
