    The warning sign of Ehrenfeld is right next to the Cologne-Ehrenfeld train station. A real lighthouse just no water far and wide :) But the best kebab shop in the world.

    Tower from 1894, 44 m high, served as a test beacon and a symbol of the Helios company, which, among other things, also built the electrical equipment for lighthouses. The tower is one of the few lighthouses inland. The company name "Helios" quotes the name of the sun god of Greek mythology.
