Eigelstein Torburg

Gate of yesteryear

Interesting city gate part of the city history worth a look to see what once was. Plenty of different food options in the area.

City Gate

This is an ancient city gate. It's interesting to walk to if you are out for a stroll, but not worth a special trip. There's a pedestrian street near here with shops and a grocery store.

Beautiful gateway

In days gone by Cologne was a walled city and around these defensive walls were 12 gateways ,gateways such as the Eigelsteintorburg . Eigelsteintorburg is one of three such gateways that have survive...

Another nice one to see...

Another of these wonderful gate structures to see that are dotted around the city... Each being unique in its design and worthy of a visit.

Meeting Point for Walking Tours

This gate is approx. 5 mins walk from the Central station and is the meeting point for walking tours. Pretty impressive medieval gate that is still standing in this city.
