The Old Town and Cologne Cathedral – 2,000 Years of History Cologne: Old Town and Cathedral Tour. 2 hours

We will explore the history of Cologne: from its founding in Roman times to the construction of Cologne Cathedral and the spread of eau de cologne to today's culture of remembrance.
The tour starts at the Fastnachtbrunnen (Carnival Fountain) in front of Farina House. This is where, according to its own claims, the oldest still-operating perfumery in Europe is located.

Walking along the construction fence of the “MiQua” Jewish Museum, which is currently being built here, you will learn about the excavations of the Roman government palace and the synagogue in Cologne’s former Jewish Quarter.

A few steps up the old town hall tower, you will see the statue of Agrippina, our city's patron saint. Here, you'll learn how she managed to end up there and what that has to do with the founding of Cologne.

Past Groß St. Martin and the Fish Market, a little way along the Rhine, we can climb the steps of the Ma'alot with a magnificent view of the Cathedral.

Why, when, and, above all, how was Cologne Cathedral actually built? And how did it survive World War II?

We'll finish the tour at the Kreuzblume (cross-flower).

You'll learn all about this—and also what Stolpersteine (stumbling blocks) have to do with Cologne—on my tour.

With the experience of over 200 tours under my belt and a genuine, heartfelt enthusiasm for Cologne, I will guide you through my city and tell you things that even true Cologne natives don't know about their own city.

I look forward to soon being able to infect you with my love for Cologne!
