Museum
As part of the Regionale 2010 programme, the City of Cologne and the State of North-Rhine Westphalia are realising a museum environment in and under the Town Hall Square with a total area of approximately 10 000 m2 with 7500 m2 of exhibition space.
History of the Area
The Rathaus (Town Hall) and its surrounding area is one of the hotspots of Cologne's urban history.
Points of Interest
The secular heart of Cologne’s urban history will be presented, ranging from the monumental ruins of the Roman Governor’s Palace to the fragile remains of one of the most significant Jewish Quarters in Europe.
Excavations
In the shelter of the tent conservation work is currently in progress on large parts of the Synagogue.
The southern excavation area exposed the foundation and cellar walls of large Romanesque and Gothic houses.
