St. Kunibert's Church, Romanesque basilica in Altstadt-Nord, Germany
The church features a tall western tower, a spacious nave with side aisles, and a choir section supported by a crypt beneath.
Construction began in 1210 under Theoderich von Wied and reached completion in 1247, making it the last of Cologne's twelve Romanesque churches.
The interior preserves original stained glass windows from 1230 and contains a bronze chandelier dating to the fifteenth century.
The church opens daily for visitors without entrance fees and stands 700 meters from Cologne central station along Johannisstraße.
A deep well called Kunibertspütz in the church crypt generated local beliefs about children emerging from its waters instead of stork delivery.
