Cologne Cathedral

Cologne Cathedral (Kölner Dom) is one of Germany's most famous landmarks and a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Located in the heart of Cologne, it stands beside the Rhine River and the city's main railway station. Construction began in 1248 and, after centuries of interruptions, was finally completed in 1880. Its enormous twin towers rise about 157 meters, making it one of the tallest church buildings in the world. Inside, visitors can admire magnificent stained-glass windows, intricate stonework, and the Shrine of the Three Kings, which is traditionally said to contain the relics of the Three Magi. The cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts millions of visitors each year.
