Come to my window...

"The Richter-Fenster" is a 106 square meter stained glass window in the Cologne Cathedral, the Dom. I keep coming here even if I've seen it so many times.

KölnTriangle Cologne

KölnTriangle

Top of the block!

"KölnTriangle" provides what in my opinion is the best view of Cologne, at least in my opinion. You can see the Dome and so much more!

St. Aposteln

Colourful frescoes in the old town

What struck me the most were the frescoes in the three apse ceilings by Hermann Gottfried. These powerful frescoes bring colors and dynamism to the church.
