Are you a street art fan? Get ready for the breathtaking walk through Ehrenfeld, Cologne’s exciting street art quarter. We start right outside the Köln-Ehrenfeld S-bahn station, the best place to start exploring the street art tunnels, arches and walls. We will make sure you find a Berlin-based street artist - El Bocho’s artwork just outside the train station, near bike railings. Here you will also find the The Edelweiss Pirates (Edelweißpiraten) artwork, tribute to the anti-Nazi group hang outside the train station in 1944. We will also look for Capitan Ehrenfeld mural at the corner of Glasstrasse and Stammstrasse, and reward our street art hunting with a piece of cake at Goldmund Literatur Cafe. We will then head to check your reaction to ROA’s graffiti on Senefelderstrasse. Then we will find ourselves back at Back Ehrenfeldgürtel to look for the City Leaks Urban Art Festival project on the residential building. You will also get a chance to pop into the traditional art galleries scattered across the neighbourhood and enjoy frequently changing exhibitions on street art, of course.
