Discover the history of Cologne.
The Cologne City Museum tells the impressive history of the city from the Middle Ages to the present on about 2,000 square meters.
The museum was housed in the historic armory, which was built by the imperial city of Cologne as an arsenal, created around 1600 in the Dutch Renaissance style.
Since the fall of 2021, the City Museum has now resided in Minoritenstrasse in the city center, and it is here at the new location that the new permanent exhibition will be presented in 2022 in the second half of the year.
The Cologne City Museum offers an insight into the intellectual life, economy and everyday life of the city of Cologne and its inhabitants from the Middle Ages to the present day.
