Cologne (Köln) is Germany's box of treasure. World famous museums, splendid architecture, superb theatres and concerts, enormous department stores and, of course, frothy beer called Kölsch.
The city is also known for its vibrant night life and fun bars. There are innumerous clubs and halls, where you will find live performances in any genre you want: from mainstream to alternative music.
Art hungry? Then Cologne is your city: about 70 galleries represent the entire spectrum of international art and the international art trade.
Annual fairs dedicated to the whole art scene are held here regularly. The most famous among them are "the art. Fair", displaying promising artworks from around the world, "Art Cologne" - one of the oldest art shows (founded in 1967) and the Cologne Fine Art fair presents high-valued art projects. As for the latter, exhibitors are always hand-picked ensuring top-quality exposition.
Though Cologne lost most of its historical centre during World War II, the city still has the air of antiquity, we dare to say. Just visit Domschatzkammer (Cathedral Treasury), Kölner Dom (Cologne Cathedral) or twelve Romanesque churches to be eventually convinced of this fact.
Cologne has over 250 hotels available in all price categories. Use this site to find the best offers that match your needs.
