　　This warren of a beer hall near the Dom epitomises Cologne earthiness and is a great place to sample the typical Kölsch beer. Knock them back and tuck into hearty pub grub amid loads of knick-knacks or out on the flower-filled terrace next to a fountain.

　　Snacks go for €4.50 to €7.30; mains are €9 to €22.50.

Must-see attractions
Domschatzkammer
Cologne
　　Reliquaries, robes, sculptures and liturgical objects are handsomely presented in medieval vaulted rooms below the main floor of the Dom. Standouts include a Gothic bishop’s staff from 1322 and a 15th-century sword. 　　The main entrance is on the north side of the cathedral, but there's also access from the left...

Gewölbe
Cologne
　　The name translates as Vault so it's quite apropos that you have to negotiate a maze of small rooms to arrive at the main floor at this underground club in Belgisches Viertel. Once there, join in as top DJs shower shiny happy people with house and techno streaming from an...
NS-Dokumentationszentrum
Cologne
　　Cologne's Third Reich history is poignantly and exhaustively documented in the NS Documentation Centre housed in the very building that served as the headquarters of the local Gestapo (Nazi secret police). The basement prison, where scores of people were interrogated, tortured and killed, is now a memorial site. 　　Inscriptions and...
Römisch-Germanisches Museum
Cologne
　　Sculptures and ruins displayed outside the entrance are merely the overture to a full symphony of Roman artefacts found along the Rhine. Highlights include the giant Poblicius tomb (AD 30–40), the magnificent 3rd-century Dionysus mosaic, and astonishingly well-preserved glass items. Insight into daily Roman life is gained from toys, tweezers,...
Church of St Gereon
Cologne
　　The most eccentric looking of Cologne's many Romanesque churches, St Gereon grew from a late-Roman chapel into this massive complex lidded by a 10-sided dome decorated with delicate ribbed vaulting. This translates into a stunning architectural ensemble filled with treasures, beautiful stained-glass windows and red-and-gold dome ceiling. ...
Church of Gross St Martin
Cologne
　　Winning top honours for Cologne's most handsome church exterior is Gross St Martin, with an ensemble of four slender turrets grouped around a central spire towering above Fischmarkt in the Altstadt. 　　Dating to the 12th century, it was built on the foundations of a Roman storage hall, which was then...
Kölner Dom
Cologne
　　Cologne’s geographical and spiritual heart – and its single-biggest tourist draw – is the magnificent Kölner Dom. With its soaring twin spires, this is the Mt Everest of cathedrals, jam-packed with art and treasures. For an exercise fix, climb the 533 steps up the Dom’s south tower to the base...
Schokoladenmuseum
Cologne
　　This boat-shaped, high-tech temple to the art of chocolate making has plenty of engaging exhibits on the 5000-year cultural history of the ‘elixir of the gods’ (as the Aztecs called it) as well as on the cocoa-growing process. The walk-through tropical forest is a highlight, although most visitors are more...
Wallraf-Richartz-Museum & Fondation Corboud
Cologne
　　One of Germany's finest art museums, the Wallraf-Richartz presents a primo collection of European art from the 13th to the 19th centuries in a minimalist cube designed by the late OM Ungers. All the marquee names are here – Rubens and Rembrandt to Manet and Monet – along with a...
Kolumba
Cologne
　　Art, history, architecture and spirituality form a harmonious tapestry in this spectacular collection of the Archdiocese of Cologne's religious treasures. Called Kolumba, the building encases the ruins of the late-Gothic church of St Kolumba, its layers of foundations going back to Roman times, and the Madonna in the Ruins chapel,...
Museum Ludwig
Cologne
　　A mecca of modern art, Museum Ludwig presents a tantalising mix of works from all major genres. Fans of German expressionism (Beckmann, Dix, Kirchner) will get their fill here as much as those with a penchant for Picasso, American pop art (Warhol, Lichtenstein) and Russian avant-garde painter Alexander Rodchenko. Rothko...
