Cologne city breaks

One of the most visited cities in Europe, a city break to Cologne is an excellent choice for a short break in Germany. Renowned for its historical architecture, beauty and modern art it is home to one of worlds largest Gothic structures which sits next to the Rhine and took over 600 years to complete.

Following World War 2 large parts of the city were rebuilt and during your city break in Cologne you´ll see the care and attention that went in to making the city what it is today with large green areas and spacious marketplaces.
