Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Cologne

The Minoritenkirche features stone vaulted ceilings, pointed arches, and tall windows that allow natural light to filter through the medieval structure.

Construction of this religious building began in the 13th century when Franciscan monks established their presence in the growing medieval city of Cologne.

The church holds regular masses and serves as a spiritual center for Catholics, maintaining traditions of Franciscan religious practices in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Visitors can access the church from Kolpingplatz, near the central district, with guided tours available during designated morning and afternoon hours.

The church houses historical artifacts and religious objects that document the continuous Franciscan presence in Cologne since medieval times.
