**★★★★★ Anthony Boulanger — 2 weeks ago

My last visit was in December 25' but it was only from the outside.I have been inside previously and it's worth your while to go in. A UNESCO World Heritage site with stunning architecture, and, if you're willing to climb the 515.8ft. spire, you'll have a beautiful panoramic view of Cologne. Give yourself about 3 hours if you do the tour. Prost!(cheers)

I can't say anything more about this architectural and historical marvel. It's a good thing that it is being preserved nd maintained. The stained glass windows, sculptures and pillars are just few of the things one would appreciate. Truly it is a must-visit place when you fly to Germany.

The cathedral is simply stunning - an incredible historic structure that’s unique, impressive, and absolutely beautiful. Even from the outside, it's a must-see.

If you’re visiting during the season, don’t miss the Christmas market located right beneath it - a wonderful atmosphere and definitely worth experiencing.

During our Rhine River Cruise, we came here to see this great piece of Gothic architecture. We came with our guide. Since they are not allowed inside, we saw it ourselves. It took more than 600 years to complete this magnificent Church. It was declared World Heritage Site in 1996. It is most visited landmark in Germany. More than 6 million tourist visit every year. It is the third tallest Church in the world. This medieval Church is continuously renovated. It is very beautiful from inside. The
