This lively city on the Rhine offers a wealth of cultural activities, international trade fairs and conferences, and numerous major events.
The cathedral city of Cologne is home to many museums and galleries that present top-class art treasures of all styles and from all epochs. With shopping streets, alleys in the “old town” and characteristic urban neighbourhoods — known as “Veedel” in Cologne’s own dialect — Cologne is considered an insider tip as one of Germany’s greatest cities for shopping. There are also many scientific research centres in the city on the Rhine. With its 97,000 students (2015) Cologne is one of the leading scientific locations in Germany.
