Places to see in ( Cologne - Germany ) praetorium
The foundations of the residence of the city's Roman governor (1st - 4th century) were uncovered under the Rathaus (city hall). A visit is like taking an elevator back to Roman times. From the entrance to the Kleine Budengasse, there is also access to an old sewer system, exemplifying the engineering skills of Roman builders. Opening hours: daily except on Monday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
The Roman Tower is an excellent example for the Roman fortifications and formed the northwest corner of the Roman Cologne. The northwestern corner tower was build in the first century a.D.. It is also famous for its well-preserved mosaic decoration.
The Römisch-Germanisches Museum gives an impressive account of the history of the Romans along the Rhine. The Roman mosaic with scenes from the world of Dionysos (around 220/230 A.D.) and the reconstructed tomb of the legionary Poblicius (around 40 A.D.) are probably its best known exhibits. Built above the Roman town villa with the world-famous Dionysus mosaic the Römisch-Germanisches Museum houses examples of art, culture and everyday life in Roman and early medieval Cologne

Roman Praetorium - Cologne | Journey Thru History
What’s hiding under Cologne?
Cologne Germany. The old town in Cologne, Kölner Altstadt, has a real treat in store for the historically curious. Especially those, like me, who are fascinated by everything Roman. After the extensive reconstructions that took place following the Second World War something significant was discovered in the area now surrounding the Great Dome, der Kölner Dom.
Apart from being Germany's most popular tourist destination daily attracting around 20 000 visitors, the cathedral is also said to house the remains of the three wise men. These sacred relics were donated in 1164 by Frederick Barbarossa who brought them there from Milan. That’s the same Holy Roman emperor whose name Hitler later used for the attempted invasion of the Soviet Union.
The Cathedral was spared in WW2. Surely in part, one can at least hope, because it hade taken over 600 years to build. The truth is it also probably still stands because it was effectively used by the Allies as a point of reference for dropping bombs on the rest of the city.
Right close by, the bombs that actually were dropped over the old town district accidentally helped reveal what hade once been the most important Roman official building on the Rhein. It’s ruins can be seen in this short clip along with a model and an illustrated image.
The Roman Praetorium, once quite formidable, continued to be in use even after the Romans hade left. It was ultimately destroyed in a major earthquake during late antiquity. The ruins are preserved today below the rebuilt present day city above. It seems fitting that the Romans old hub of administration and government should be preserved in this way. They were after all the city’s founders. In a close race with other contender Trier, it might actually be Germany’s oldest city.

Places to see in ( Cologne - Germany ) Roman German Museum
The Roman-Germanic Museum is an archaeological museum in Cologne, Germany. It has a large collection of Roman artifacts from the Roman settlement of Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium, on which modern Cologne is built. The museum protects the original site of a Roman town villa, from which a large Dionysus mosaic remains in its original place in the basement, and the related Roman Road just outside. In this respect the museum is an archaeological site.
The museum also has the task of preserving the Roman cultural heritage of Cologne, and therefore houses an extensive collection of Roman glass from funerals and burials and also exercises archaeological supervision over the construction of the Cologne underground.
Most of the museum's collection was housed at the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne until 1946. In the front of the museum the former northern town gate of Cologne with the inscription CCAA (for Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium) is on display in the building.
The Römisch-Germanisches Museum, which opened in 1974, is near the Cologne Cathedral on the site of a 3rd-century villa. The villa was discovered in 1941 during the construction of an air-raid shelter. On the floor of the main room of the villa is the renowned Dionysus mosaic. Since the mosaic could not be moved easily, the architects Klaus Renner and Heinz Röcke designed the museum around the mosaic. The inner courtyards of the museum mimic the layout of the ancient villa.
In addition to the Dionysus mosaic, which dates from around A.D. 220/230, there is the reconstructed sepulcher of legionary Poblicius (about A.D. 40). There is also an extensive collection of Roman glassware as well as an array of Roman and medieval jewellery. Many artifacts of everyday life in Roman Cologne — including portraits (e.g., of Roman emperor Augustus and his wife Livia Drusilla), inscriptions, pottery, and architectural fragments — round out the displays.

Cologne, a 2,000-year-old city spanning the Rhine River in western Germany, is the region’s cultural hub. A landmark of High Gothic architecture set amid reconstructed old town, the twin-spired Cologne Cathedral is also known for its gilded medieval reliquary and sweeping river views. The adjacent Museum Ludwig showcases 20th-century art, including many masterpieces by Picasso, and the Romano-Germanic Museum houses Roman antiquities.
Cologne is the largest city in the German federal State of North Rhine-Westphalia and the fourth-largest city in Germany (after Berlin, Hamburg, and Munich). Cologne is located within the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region, one of the major European metropolitan areas, and with more than ten million inhabitants, the largest in Germany. Cologne is located on both sides of the Rhine River, less than eighty kilometres from Belgium. The city's famous Cologne Cathedral (Kölner Dom) is the seat of the Catholic Archbishop of Cologne. The University of Cologne (Universität zu Köln) is one of Europe's oldest and largest universities.
Cologne is a major cultural centre for the Rhineland; it hosts more than thirty museums and hundreds of galleries. Exhibitions range from local ancient Roman archeological sites to contemporary graphics and sculpture. The Cologne Trade Fair hosts a number of trade shows such as Art Cologne, imm Cologne, Gamescom, and the Photokina.
Road building had been a major issue in the 1920s under the leadership of mayor Konrad Adenauer. The first German limited access road was constructed after 1929 between Cologne and Bonn. Cologne has a railway service with Deutsche Bahn InterCity and ICE-trains stopping at Köln Hauptbahnhof (Cologne Main Station), Köln Messe/Deutz and Cologne/Bonn Airport. ICE and TGV Thalys high-speed trains link Cologne with Amsterdam, Brussels (in 1h47, 9 departures/day) and Paris (in 3h14, 6 departures/day). Häfen und Güterverkehr Köln (Ports and Goods traffic Cologne, HGK) is one of the largest operators of inland ports in Germany. Ports include Köln-Deutz, Köln-Godorf, and Köln-Niehl I and II. Cologne's international airport is Cologne/Bonn Airport (CGN). It is also called Konrad Adenauer Airport after Germany's first post-war Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, who was born in the city and was mayor of Cologne from 1917 until 1933.

Cologne, a 2,000-year-old city spanning the Rhine River in western Germany, is the region’s cultural hub. A landmark of High Gothic architecture set amid reconstructed old town, the twin-spired Cologne Cathedral is also known for its gilded medieval reliquary and sweeping river views. The adjacent Museum Ludwig showcases 20th-century art, including many masterpieces by Picasso, and the Romano-Germanic Museum houses Roman antiquities.
Cologne (German: Köln, Ripuarian: Kölle) is situated on the river Rhine, it's the largest city in North Rhine-Westphalia and the fourth largest city in Germany with more than 1.000.000 inhabitants (greater area 3.500.000 inhabitans). In medieval times it was the largest city of the Holy Roman Empire. It is one of the nation's media, tourism and business hotspots. Cologne is known to be one of the most liberal cities in Germany.
The distinctive flavour to the city of Cologne is often linked to the city's inhabitants, or Kölsche, who take an enormous amount of pride in their city. Cologne is a traditionally Ripuarian-speaking city, though this has mostly been replaced by German, which is now the main language of the city. English-speaking guides and information are available for many of the landmarks of the city. For tourists who speak German and wish to practice it, the citizens usually have a lot of patience with those trying to come to grips with the language. Cologne's citizens are very friendly and jovial people, welcoming tourists of all types and with all interests.
Away from the landmarks, workers of the Deutsche Bahn (German railways) often speak English reasonably well, and ticket machines have a language selection feature. In general, older people in Cologne tend to have little or no knowledge of English, while younger Germans and those working in the business world tend to be reasonably proficient. Language is rarely a strong barrier, so this shouldn't be too much of a worry for the average tourist. Just approach a friendly native and use a smile on your face.
Cologne has an excellent public transport network consisting of trams, local trains and buses. Bicycles are also available for hire on the northern side of the Hauptbahnhof. Local transport systems rarely provide announcements in English, but network maps are commonly available to assist with your journey. Those wishing to explore area away from the central city should plan their journey and potential connections before leaving.

Cologne Cathedral Roncalliplatz Mass (18/08/2005)
The Praetorium - with explanation
We sat in the Praetorium as our guide Hela used Matt 27:27-31 to prove that this is the place where the Roman guards mocked and spit on Jesus as they adorned Him in a regal robe and twisted the crown of thorns on His head. After that they stripped Him and put His old clothes back on. Then Jesus took up the cross and began His long laborious walk along the Via Dolorosa to Golgotha or Calvary.

Visit Cologne Germany - Köln
There live a little bit more than a million people in cologne, making it the biggest city in North Rhine-Westphalia and the fourth biggest city in Germany. This is partly because Cologne incorporated small areas around it, making them districts of Cologne and effectively raising the population number.
The name cologne originates back to when Cologne was occupied by the Romans. The roman Queen Agrippina was born at the Rhine and made the city to an official city of the roman empire with the name Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium. Till today there are also still parts of the old roman city wall visible and a lot of things are still named the same from back in the day.
The dome is 157.38 meters high making it the third highest cathedral in the world. It took about 716 years until the dome was finished and it had a rough time throughout this and still requires a lot of maintenance, because the dome is made of sandstone which is vulnerable to weathering. Another valuable thing about the dome is, it stores the relics of the three kings (you know the three kings that came to Jesus birth by following a star and gave him all those riches).
Cologne also has the only language that you can drink. It’s called Kölsch and the language feels like an old mix of French and old German and the beer tastes amazing (honestly it is pretty good). The language is also one of the few dialects that are not feared to go extinct in Germany. The history of the beer goes back to around 1170 -1285.
The cologne emblem dates back to 1475 and it is probably the reason that red and white is a typical colour scheme for Cologne. The emblem is red and white, because Cologne was a founder of the German Hanse and red and white were the colours of the Hanse so it was taken over for this emblem. Do you remember the three kings I mentioned earlier? Yes, they are represented by the three golden crowns. The black drops represent the holy virgin Ursula and the virginal ten women that travelled with her. The legend says, they were coming back from a pilgrim to Rome and were murdered by Attila the Hun in Cologne.
The fifth time of the year starts on the 11th of November at 11:11 am. If you are confused now what I mean with fifth season, don’t worry I am talking about carnival. Carnival is a really big tradition in Cologne that is celebrated heavily each year, if you get the chance to visit Cologne by this time of the year, just do it, the atmosphere is amazing.
