Walking through the streets in Cologne on a rainy day, we stumbled upon this Basilica. This is a beautiful Basilica and we enjoyed the architecture, art and quietness of what this Basilica offers. There is so much of history in Germany and this is one of them. We saw many art depicting Christendom and history of Cologne. It is very peaceful to be here. The atmosphere is very reflective and you can pray and mediate as this is what this church is for. We did not had to pay a fee but to respect this place for what it is. We spent about 45 minutes here and moved on. There is also a write up about this Basilica in the front foyer.

Amazing architecture and a must visit if you are on a holiday. The church is open for visit on days when mass is not taking place.
Beautiful church. Its at a walking distance from city center. It close by 6 PM.
One of the Romanesque gems in Bonn. With stunning examples of Roman structure and later development. Well worth visiting. The decagonal dome and baptismal chapel are not to be missed
It's a smallish church, but one of the few I know of where you can go all the way up to the altar. …
