Cologne is the fourth-largest city in Germany - and one of the oldest. A Germanic tribe, the Ubii, had a settlement here, this was named by the Romans "Oppidum Ubiorum". In 50 AD, the Romans founded "Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium", the city then became the provincial capital of "Germania Inferior". Heavy machinery occupies a part of the Venloer Strasse, as large renovations are underway in the house behind. "Metzgerei Reintgen", a butchery that had been here for many decades, has closed down. Maybe the discount markets plus vegetarism of the younger people made it impossible for the family to continue the business. "Blumengarten", the flower shop to the right seems to be in full blossom. www.blumengarten-koeln.de
