current Exhibition

50 Johr Bläck Fööss

May 5, 2020 to September 27, 2020

The Bläck Fööss have become the city’s figureheads and a Cologne trademark. They have developed into a musical institution, and their popularity has spread far beyond the region. For more than 5 decades the group has, with a few changes in band members, inspired Cologners with their empathetic, critical lyrics and their impressive variety of different styles. In their songs they paint a picture of life in Cologne’s quarters, without losing sight of topical world affairs.

75 Years Ago - Cologne in ruins

November 7, 2020 to February 14, 2021

At the centre of this impressive exhibition is a large model of the city of Cologne which was created for the feature film “About Endlessness” (2019) by the Swedish director Roy Andersson. The film is a poignant portrayal of the city in ruins immediately after the end of World War II in 1945. The Old Town was completely destroyed and hardly a single building was inhabitable above the basement level. Only roughly 40,000 people still lived in Cologne.
