Meschenich, Residential district in Rodenkirchen, Germany

Meschenich spans 4.72 square kilometers at the southern edge of Cologne, featuring nine high-rise buildings that define its modern skyline.

The settlement, first documented in 1166 as Meschingen, belonged to various Cologne churches and monasteries during the Middle Ages until 1975.

The St. Blasius Church, constructed in 1891 in neo-Romanesque style, stands at the center of Meschenich next to traditional half-timbered buildings.

The district connects to central Cologne through Brühler Straße, a main road constructed between 1826 and 1830 that intersects the neighborhood.

The Kölnberg residential complex contains nine brown towers reaching up to 26 floors, making it a frequent location for film productions.
