Brian and I hopped in the car this past weekend and drove to Koln, or Cologne as we English speakers say. One of our main reasons for visiting was to see the Dom, pictured above. This cathedral, otherwise known as the Kolner Dom or the Hohe Domkirche St. Peter und Maria was started in 1248 and completed in 1880. Talk about a long term building project. I wonder if any of the original engineers got to see it through to completion?! Our visit to this city was short lived, only two nights, but I have many photos to share and will do so in the upcoming weeks.
