Cologne Cathedral is one of the most important places of Christianity. The gifts of the Magi are kept in the cathedral. The structure is huge. Gothic. The beauty is indescribable. In the very center of Cologne. Very high ceilings. The windows are decorated with themed panels. We climbed the tower. On foot. I was sweating while climbing the steep stairs. But the views from there are just crazy.

The legend of the Cologne Cathedral says that the first architect of the cathedral, Master Gerhard, could not make drawings of the future structure in any way, so he decided to call the devil himself for help. He came and offered a deal: there would be drawings, but in return he would have to give his soul. The architect agreed.
The cathedral is under construction, and Gerhard writes a receipt in blood: they say, I give my soul, as agreed. He attached a piece of the miraculous tree to the piece of paper. This should have reset the deal. The devil appeared and said: the papers have no legal force, and only human life is at stake. As a result, the devil decides to take revenge for the attempt at deception. His punishment is severe: Cologne Cathedral will never be completed, and the name of the architect will be forgotten. After that, the unfortunate architect falls from the scaffolding and crashes.

Cologne Cathedral is incredible! He comes out unexpectedly from behind the bridge structures, the bastard of our whole hectic life. It is amazing not by its enormity, but by its audacity. After all, he was bombed and instead of with his people, the country rose from the ruins!! Let him be a new beacon in the path of Europe, Germany, and will not let the civilization of Europe be surrendered to foreigners...

The place is incredibly beautiful. I always go inside if I'm walking around.
Once we accidentally got to work with an organ, the music was so beautiful - goosebumps ran down my skin.
I also advise you to go up to the observation deck.

The third-tallest cathedral in Europe is among the UNESCO sites.
During the Second World War, when the bombing of the Americans destroyed almost the whole of Cologne, miraculously only the Cologne Cathedral was not damaged. By tacit agreement of the pilots, the cathedral was preserved as an important geographical landmark.

Cologne Dome Cathedral in 1248.
The 157-meter towers of the cathedral are a symbol of the city of Cologne. Mighty pointed arched windows in the middle of the western facade. The inner space seems to flow into the outer one. I admire the Gothic architecture. It is a miracle that it was preserved during the war. The cathedral is called the "glass temple". More than 10,000 sq.m. of glass in different eras were turned into priceless works of art here. The crystal sea of stained glass windows in the upper choir was created in 1304-1321. The famous Biblical stained glass windows of 1260. Bavarian stained glass windows are a wonderful creation of the new Gothic. Romantic stained glass windows were created by medieval craftsmen. Paintings, sculptures, and relics fill the interior of the cathedral.

According to legend, the holy martyr Catherine hid from her husband the fact of adultery with peasants from the village and was punished by flogging with rods to tears. The punishment had such an effect on her that she stopped being a vicious woman and cut her hair as a nun.
