Cologne Holidays
Cologne Cathedral
With its UNESCO World Heritage status, Cologne Cathedral is like the celebrity of German landmarks – everyone wants to see it! The interior features the enchanting Shrine of the Three Kings – an elaborate triple sarcophagus that’s said to cradle their bones.
Old Town
Dive into the whimsical wonderland of Cologne’s Old Town, where half-timbered houses seem to have sprung from a storybook and cobblestone streets lead to delightful cafés. Be sure to meet the whimsical Pixies Fountain and share a chuckle with the bronze statues of Tünnes and Schäl.
Christmas Markets
Get ready for a festive fiesta as Cologne morphs into a magical winter wonderland during the Christmas season. The air fills with scrumptious scents of cinnamon stars and roasted almonds that tickle the nose and warm the heart. Who can resist a giant, shiny ornament?
