Treasures of the Church. |
Roncalliplatz 2 Cologne, NRW 50667 Germany +49 221 2577 672 http://www.kolumba.de |
If you want to visit a museum on a Monday in Cologne, you'll probably find yourself at the Erzbischöfliches Diözesanmuseum (since 1853), as it happens to be the only museum open on a Monday! The collection on display includes the treasures of the churches and archdiocese of Cologne. Stefan Lochner's Madonna mit dem Veilchen (Madonna with Violets) from the mid-15th century is of particular note. Heinz Mack's Himmelssäule (Pillars of Heaven), a 10-metre-high modern sculpture, towers over the entrance. There is no entry charge. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Museum of Cologne's history |
Zeughausstraße 1-3 Cologne, NRW 50667 Germany +49 221 25789 http://www.museenkoeln.de/Ksm |
First-time visitors to the Kölnisches Stadtmuseum are usually taken aback. On top of the tower is a winged golden car which has apparently nothing at all to do with the old building underneath it. The Fiesta, which was produced in Cologne, was celebrated by the artist H.A. Schmidt, who created the memorial car and in doing so caused bitter controversy. This is part of Cologne's local history, which is the theme of the Zeughaus. Among other pieces from Cologne's rich and varied past which are on display here is the gothic city seal.

700 brands of beer |
Antwerpener Straße 31 Belgisches Viertel Cologne, NRW 50672 Germany +49 221 51 6590 |
The Biermuseum is a rather typical kiosk selling magazines, sweets, snacks and drinks. But unlike every other kiosk in Cologne, they also have 700 different kinds of bottled beer to choose from! If you're looking for one of your favorite German brews that is hard to find in this part of the country, or a particular brand of dark Hefe Weizen or Schwarzbier, this is the place to come. They also have a good selection of strong Belgian beers, including Delerium Tremens and Chimay, English ales like Spitfire or Newcastle Brown but also beers from far more exotic places like Cuba, South Africa, Jamaica and Brazil. Because they are a kiosk, rather than a normal shop, they can stay open much later. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Chocolate museum |
Rheinauhafen 1a Cologne, NRW 50678 Germany +49 221 931 8880 http://www.schokoladenmuseum.de |
Opened in 1993, the Chocolate Museum is located in Cologne's former harbor, and the building has been designed in the shape of a ship's prow in deference to this maritime connection. Architect Ernst Eller constructed the building almost entirely out of glass, according to the specifications of Hans Imhoff, head of the Stollwerck company. The firm has also influenced the name of the museum, which in full reads 'The Imhoff-Stollwerck Museum of the Past and Present of Chocolate'. Visitors can drink from the warm chocolate spring and try out the home-made chocolate produced in the factory. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cologne history |
Zeughausstraße 1-3 Innenstadt Cologne, NRW 50667 Germany +49 221 2212 5789 http://www.museenkoeln.de/Ksm/... |
The first traces of the Zeughaus, in which weapons were kept date from the 14th century. Around the year 1600 a new armory was planned and built, which already included objects gained during Cologne's long history of military campaigns - for example, from the battle of Worringen in 1288, when the power of the Archbishops in Cologne was decisively ended. Since 1958, when the Kölnische Stadtmuseum opened in the former armory, some of the historical pieces have returned; cannons from 1377 - the oldest to have survived, but also the weapons and armor of the city guard in later times.

Relics from all times |
Ursulaplatz 24 Innenstadt Cologne, NRW 50668 Germany |
One of the most important legends of the city of Cologne is the story of St. Ursula and her companions. Did the medieval inhabitants of Cologne find the remains of eleven young women or just a Roman cemetery on the site where the church of St Ursula now stands? Only one thing is certain — the Middle Ages saw a thriving trade in relics. St Ursula was for a time the patron saint of Cologne; according to the legend she preserved the city from the Huns. She and eleven maidens were murdered by the Huns, but as the Huns then attempted to take the city they were prevented by Divine intervention. The fact that the original eleven maidens became an amazing 11,000 and that Ursula herself also acquired a bridegroom is scarcely miraculous - just a result of the medieval passion for relics. In the Goldene Kammer in St Ursula's church there are numerous valuable reliquaries dating from the 13th to the 18th centuries. An Aetherius shrine to the bridegroom of St Ursula is also well worth seeing. Review © 2007, Wcities |
