What to expect
Cologne through the ages
At the beginning of the tour, I will introduce you to the main attraction of the city - Cologne Cathedral. You will hear the history of this majestic and graceful creation of master Gerhard, which was built over six hundred years. Next, we will continue to explore the architecture of Cologne - I will show you the philharmonic building, the Romanesque St. Martin's Cathedral, and the town hall, where the local government sits. You will learn who founded the city in 38 BC, what it was called in the Roman period, and see an ancient mosaic depicting scenes from the life of the god Dionysus.
About Cologne with love
I will help you discover Cologne not only as one of the oldest cities in Germany but also as a modern place with positive energy. You will see the funny Heinzelmännchen fountain and hear why the locals call it the 'fountain of offended little gnomes.' You will admire the arched bridge Goltzsch over the Rhine River, relax at the Haymarket Square, visit the perfume museum, and meet the heroes of local anecdotes - Tünnes and Schäl.
