Located in the heart of Europe, Cologne is North Rhine-Westphalia's largest metropolis and a major transport hub. Shaped by a rich cultural and historical heritage — above all the imposing Cologne Cathedral — the city delights with numerous museums, stages and a varied culinary scene. As a significant economic centre, Cologne is home to companies in media, trade and services. Amid all this diversity, Cologne remains a city with heart that welcomes its visitors with open arms.
