Description

A great view of the Kölner Dom (Cologne cathedral).

It is said to be most perfect gothic cathedral of the world and it´s really huge, you have to walk up 533 steps to the top.

Kaiser Friedrich Barbarossa brought the bodies of the 3 holy kings to the cathedral and made Köln a famous city.

During the 2. world war it was one of the first victims of british bombings. Nearly the whole historical town was destroyed completely.

That is beautiful. I've always been a great admirer of Gothic architecture, so this definitely strikes my fancy. Great shot. :)
