Discover Details:
Cologne Cathedral
Try to catch one of the choral services if you can; it was such a beautiful experience and absolutely free! A perfect way to enjoy the acoustics of the cathedral.
If you're on a budget, skip the audio guide. I found plenty of info online and through the pamphlet they give. My advice is to save those euros for a nice bratwurst instead!
Bring a good camera or your phone charged. The intricate details on the outside and inside are just stunning. You won’t want to miss capturing those, trust me.
Check out the rooftop view! I missed it, but everyone raves about it. I think it's worth the extra few euros and the climb.
Cologne Chocolate Museum
Don't miss the chocolate fountain in the middle! I think it's a magical experience to dip fresh fruit in it. But, keep an eye on the timing—it gets super busy around lunch!
Heidelberg Castle
House History FRG
German Tank Museum
My advice is to download the audio guide. It’s only a couple of euros more, but it really brings some of the exhibits to life, plus it helped me understand the history better.
I suggest hitting the museum right when it opens at 10 AM. The crowds are way lighter then, and you can snap some great pics without all the people in your way
Deutsches Marinemuseum Wilhelmshaven
Castle Drachenburg
Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik
Museum Ludwig
I think the audio guide is worth it! It really enriches the experience and helps you understand the art more. Just don't forget your headphones!
German Coal Museum
My advice is to wear comfy shoes. You’ll be walking around quite a bit, and those coal mine exhibitions are super fascinating but they’ll tire ya out!
