If you have any interest in history, do not miss this museum. Romans used to live in the Cologne area, and there were houses excavated there. There is a wonderful mosaic floor which was discovered when a subway was being built. Most impressive is the collection of artifacts, especially jewelry. There are English labels on most displays. more

The museum stands next to the cathedral so handy to visit. It has outstanding collection of glass and jewellery. The main attraction is the mosaic and funeral monument. Save your money as this can be seen from the outside. more
