Cologne Cathedral Tour

The world-famous building, with its gigantic proportions and its rich furnishings, makes a breathtaking impact even on viewers today. After the first foundations were laid in 1248 it took another 600 years before it was completed in the 19th century. The interior is mainly characterised by its richly preserved windows and radiant golden shrine of the three kings. Since 2007, the cathedral has also been home to a much admired window by Gerhard Richter.
