The first broadcasting house of the Cologne-based West German Broadcasting Corporation (WDR) is very close to the main train station and cathedral as well as Hohestrasse. The address is Wallrafplatz 5, and an early children's series was also called "The Sparrow from Wallrafplatz". For the latter, see: www1.wdr.de/stichtag/stichtag-kinderserie-spatz-vom-wallrafplatz-100.html
