This giant Gothic cathedral, which until its completion in 1880 had been under construction for over 500 years, is perhaps Germany's most famous religious structure and includes two huge towers that serve as the defining symbol of Cologne's skyline.

7. Aachen Cathedral

Any structure that speaks about historical facts and figures are always interesting. Aachen Cathedral is no exception. The Gothic architecture is too evident in the structure. Tall minarets, high domes with stained glass paintings and large doors welcoming you... with quiet interiors. The Dom Cathedral of Aachen was built by the great Emperor Charliemagne and his body is buried here.. There are many more religious leaders and Kings are also buried here. In that sense this is almost like a holy place with so many historically famous and those who have been associated with Infant Jesus, - the infant jesus cloth was sbelieved to have been brought by Emperor Charlie... Its said that the Loin cloth of Jesus was also brought by him It is an important pilgrimage stop. Its indeed an architectural marvel embedded with historical facts that makes it extremely interested.
8. Treasury of Aachen Cathedral

The Aachen Cathedral Treasury should pretty much a visit to Aachen Cathedral with an extra payment for entrance. It’s definitely worth the entrance fee to see all the treasures of the cathedral, especially the golden bust of Charlemange, all the Charlemagne reliquaries and dozens of other saint reliquaries, and the Cross of Lothar. There’s also some fantastic works of art by various goldsmiths, sculptures and the likes. Definitely a must see in Aachen.

We had a wonderful visit to this Palace in Corona-time. Must reserve and be patient on phone. We went directly to desk and got the last”tour “ of the day 3:30-4:30 pm when they close. The tour consists of a guard more than guide, who directs you to info sheet in your language. No real tours due to Covid. Gardens are lovely. No photos allowed inside palace so be sure to buy small guidebook in your language. Large book only available in German but luckily my husband reads it so he bought one. Sadly we didn’t have time for the hunting lodge. My impression was that this was like a mini-Versailles. We had time for lunch at the Bruhler Wirsthaus-former train station-excellent! We returned after the tour for coffee and apple cake-not a bit was left and now we have to have carrots and cheese n crackers for dinner since we ate it all! Go if you can!
