Cologne is known as one of Germany’s key cultural hubs and has buildings dating back to medieval times standing amongst modern concert halls and museums. In addition to its 2,000 years of history, Cologne has the largest Gothic church in northern Europe, which towers over the old town and is regularly voted Germany’s most popular tourist attraction. Cologne’s economy is supported by leading media centres, with many production companies for radio and television based in the city, as well as being home to a strong automotive industry; the headquarters of the European operations of Ford Motor Company is based in Cologne. The city also has one of the world’s oldest commodity and stock exchanges. During World War II Cologne sustained 262 air raids leaving the city in ruins – miraculously, however, Cologne Cathedral survived the bombing! Since then the city has been beautifully redeveloped - our serviced apartments in Cologne are an ideal place to stay in this rebuilt city during your business trip.
