KölnTriangle Panorama
KölnTriangle
An observation deck on the top floor of a 103-meter tower on the east bank of the Rhine. It faces the cathedral and Hohenzollern Bridge, making it the best spot for panoramic photos.
KölnTriangle stands on the east bank of the Rhine in the Deutz district, about 103 m tall, and opened in 2006. Its open-air observation deck (the LVR deck) on the 29th floor directly faces the cathedral’s twin towers and Hohenzollern Bridge across the river, making it the best spot for panoramic photos of the city. Tickets cost about €5, and the lift goes straight to the top, which is much easier than climbing the cathedral’s south tower. It is best to go up half an hour before sunset and wait for the cathedral lights to come on. From the cathedral, it is about a 10-minute walk across Hohenzollern Bridge, or you can take a train to Köln Messe/Deutz station.
