Cologne: Tour of Germany's Oldest Metropolis (in German)

Embark on a journey through time and immerse yourself in the 2000 year history of the city of Cologne.

Discover how the area surrounding the cathedral has changed over the millennia, and admire the 19th century hall inside the main train station, or the new museum buildings with remains from the Roman period.
Find out everything there is to know about the city's history, from its beginnings, to its heyday in the Middle Ages, to modern times.

Start with the 20 year French rule, followed by the Prussians and finally, the Second World War and the city’s subsequent reconstruction. Listen to funny stories about the people of Cologne, their sense of humour and their way of life.
