The museum for Cologne’s Archdiocese is in a structure that was erected over the ruins of the St. Kolumba Church.
This fine Late-Gothic church was razed during the Second World War, a the new building surrounding it was designed by Pritzker Prizewinning architect Peter Zumthor.
You enter via the bombed out church building, which is an eerie experience, before ascending to the art galleries.
