Tourist guide Cologne

Cologne is located in the western part of Germany. This city of approximately 986,000 inhabitants is more than 2030 years old, making it one of the oldest cities in the country. Today, it is a busy commercial centre, yet it has managed to well preserve its culture and heritage.

Overall, Cologne has a mild and pleasant climate.  The winters cannot be considered cold by German standards, but the average temperature is still as low as 3°C. Summer is the best time to visit with the average temperature at 20°C. Cologne has rain throughout the year with many overcast days and little sunshine.

Cologne’s development accelerated through the Middle Ages because the major trade routes between both the east and the west passed through the city. Under the rule of the Archbishops, the city was also an important pilgrimage centre.
