쾰른‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪13‬개의 동굴

"One of the last remaining towers of Cologne's city wall... In the 13th century, Cologne possessed the largest city fortifications in the Holy Roman Empire, with its 7,000-meter-long ring of walls, twelve gates, and numerous towers. The city wall—built between 1200 and 1250 from Rhenish trachyte, tuff, and basalt—encircled the city in a semicircle, with the Rhine forming its eastern boundary. In 1881, for a city expansion, the walls were demolished, leaving only a few remnants, and eight of the twelve gates were torn down." https://www.denkmalschutz.de/denkmal/ulrepforte.html

In the inner courtyard there is an abstract sculpture group by the sculptor Ansgar Nierhof.

The Ulrepforte is part of the medieval city wall, https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulrepforte

When you look at the gate, you can imagine what's hidden behind it, because unfortunately you can't get in. Although I don't think everyone can appreciate its beauty.

The castle can only be viewed from the outside. At the entrance to the property there is a sign indicating that it is private property and not open to the public. However, the views you can catch from the gate of the castle and the castle garden are very beautiful.

A beautiful facility that also seems to be well preserved. However, the building and the access are private and not open to the public.

The remaining historic city gates, here the “Severin Gate”, which are now located in the middle of the city, are impressive witnesses to the extensive city wall that once protectively surrounded Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium. After their demolition, it is thanks above all to the then mayor Konrad Adenauer that the areas were not redeveloped and that the "green belt" was able to be created.
