KTJohnson, thanks for the nice comments. I agree that it is difficult to get a nice photo of the whole cathedral. I'm pleased you enjoyed my photos, especially those of the "attic".
Hi, donziska! I don't recall having seen you before--thanks for coming and the very complimentary comments. You're welcome--I like to share.

I visited Koln in 1953, at that time the cathedral was a mess of rubble. Over 100 bombs were dropped at or near the cathedral. I lived in Germany 1962-64 and dated a girl living less than a block away. We probably visited this magnificent structure over 50 times. Each time we were overwhelmed with the construction and re-construction It’s WOW!

So the scene was still a war zone 8 years later? I would have expected the rubble to have at least been removed.

Absolutely unique structure and very well presented, David ( I looked through all three parts ). I visited Cologne in 2004, as usual for one day only, and still went to see the Cathedral. I was really overwhelmed by its grandeur, sights and sound of the organ. Thank you.
