About Cologne
A vibrant and cheerful city, Cologne is a big hit with tourists for its grand sights, lively nightlife, and iconic beer, Kölsch. Brewed right in this German city, pair the drink with a grilled sausage or a pork knuckle as you soak up the atmosphere of the Kölsch beer halls. If you’re looking to see the city in full colour, several magnificent carnivals run throughout the year – think fancy-dress, singalongs, and non-stop dancing.
As Germany's fourth largest city, Cologne's enriched with more than 2,000 years of history and an abundance of sights. Dominating the city’s skyline, Cologne cathedral is a gothic masterpiece not to be missed. Another delight for art lovers is Museum Ludwig, home to one of the largest collections of Picasso works in the world. A perfect blend of culture, nightlife and festivities, there’s something for everyone in Cologne.
