Basilica of St. Cunibert, Cologne

Cologne - I started an early walk to the old town and found this church.  The Basilica of St. Cunibert is the last of Cologne's twelve Romanesque churches to be built. It was consecrated 1247, one year before work on the Gothic Cologne Cathedral began. It was declared a minor basilica in 1998 by the then Pope John Paul II.


Entrance to the church

So beautiful and grandeur

the piped organ

pews leading up to the altar



the door was so thick and heavy

a beautiful church
