Guided walking tour through the historical center

The group tour through Cologne's old town around the cathedral, town hall and the Romanesque church of Groß St. Martin impressively illustrates the interplay between historical heritage and contemporary city life. Sights are lined up close together in a small space, so that the historical transformation of Cologne from its Roman foundation to the present day can be experienced directly. A tour through narrow, cobbled alleyways and across lively squares such as the Alter Markt shows how regionality and social identity are lived out in Cologne's urban history. The Old Town presents itself as authentic and reflective - and illustrates how sustainable perspectives emerge from a consciously cultivated tradition.

Duration of the tour: 90 minutes
