Frequently asked questions about the Cologne site:
Cologne as an event location
Cologne, one of the oldest cities in Germany, is a vibrant centre of culture and history. Situated on the Rhine, Cologne combines a rich past with a dynamic present. The city is famous for its imposing cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which characterises the cityscape.
Cologne’s cultural diversity manifests itself in its numerous museums, theatres and galleries. The Roman-Germanic Museum preserves the history of the city and its Roman heritage, while the Museum Ludwig presents an extensive collection of modern and contemporary art. Away from the museums, the historic city centre attracts visitors with its historic buildings, picturesque alleyways and lively squares that invite them to linger.

Cologne is not only a popular venue for large trade fairs and public events, but also a first-class choice for corporate events of all kinds.
