    This building is a little lost in the shadow of Cologne Cathedral. It is a remnant from Roman times, when the city wall was here

      The side arch of the Roman North Gate in Cologne is a fascinating relic from Roman times. It is part of the north gate of the Roman city wall, which once served as the main entrance to the city. Today the side arch is located on the Cologne Cathedral square, slightly offset from its original location.

      The North Gate was one of the four larger, architecturally elaborate gates in the Roman city wall. It remained visible until 1657 and was later integrated into a new building. Some architectural parts were preserved and were rediscovered in 1892 when the cathedral curia was demolished.
