Basilica of the Holy Apostles, Minor basilica in Neumarkt, Cologne, Germany

The Romanesque church features a triple-apse eastern end and a 67-meter western tower, with a central nave flanked by symmetrical aisles.

The church's foundation dates to 1020, marking the beginning of an extensive construction period that established one of Cologne's twelve Romanesque churches.

The basilica houses medieval religious artifacts in its treasury, including the 13th-century Heribert Chalice and numerous liturgical objects.

The church maintains regular religious services and welcomes visitors between Neumarkt and Hahnenstrasse, near central Cologne's shopping district.

Two eastern towers complement the western tower, creating a distinctive architectural composition that differs from other Romanesque churches in Cologne.
