Cologne Germany is over 2,000 years old and was once a Roman city. Known for it's Gothic architecture and twine tower cathedral (third largest in the world) Cologne is in competition with Düesseldorf when it comes to beer. The average German drinks 35 gallons of beer a year.

A nice fountain and flowers.
Cologne Cathedral Church started in 1248. It is still being updated
Glass was removed during WWII and saved to be placed back in the church.
Bridge of locks. One of the first bridges built near Cologne. Trains cross the bridge every 1.5 minutes.
People walk, drive and ride trains over this bridge.
This Is a photo of a bombed building. So sad that so many died during the war.
Lovers place a lock on the bridge signifying there love. They throw the key in the water and live happily ever after.
It is good to own a lock shop.
