With the help of advanced VR technology, you’ll watch daily life, architecture and vivid moments from Cologne’s past come alive before your eyes.

A Journey Through Time

Compared to simply viewing old photographs, a VR tour delivers a living, breathing sense of history. As you collect your headset and join your expert guide, you’ll begin a 90-minute walk through the heart of Cologne’s Old Town.

Your guide shares fascinating stories about each period, pointing out how the present streets are shaped by centuries of transformation.

Immersive Technology and Storytelling

At several key locations during your walk, you’ll put on your VR headset and be “transported” to the same spot in a completely different era. These immersive panoramas reveal vibrant city scenes: Roman citizens in togas, horse-drawn carriages clattering down lively markets, astonishing architectural styles and more. Each transition shifts your perspective between modern Cologne and its roots, offering a powerful way to understand the city’s heritage. The headsets provide crisp visuals and a sense of presence that traditional tours can’t match.
