Meet Tünnes and Schäl, two of the most famous “people” in Cologne who aren’t real at all 😄

This beloved local duo originates from Cologne’s puppet theater (Hänneschen-Theater in German).

👉 Part 8 of Tips from a Tour Guide 🇩🇪

Each of our tour guides explains Tünnes and Schäl a little bit different. Essentially, Tünnes is the good-hearted, simple one, while Schäl is the slimmer, cunning one in the tailcoat.

Locals believe that their bronze statues in the Old Town bring good luck.

👉 Our guides will tell you the best jokes to go with it!

Top Kölsch breweries in Cologne's Old Town 👇

No visit to Cologne is complete without a proper Kölsch 🍺

👉 Part 6 of Tips from a Tour Guide 🇩🇪

Kölsch is the only b**r in Germany with protected geographic status, meaning it must be brewed in Cologne.

A traditional Brauhaus is the best place to try Kölsch the authentic way, served in small glasses by a Köbes.

Our guides all have their own favorite brewery around the Old Town, and we are featuring the highlights in this video 🍻

Invented in 1709, Eau de Cologne was invented by Farina, and the Farina Fragrance House () sits on the very site where the fragrance was first created.

The flagship store is definitely worth a visit. You can smell the original fragrance, which was worn by famous figures such as Napoleon and Queen Victoria.

Ever wondered what sits BELOW the Cologne Cathedral?

We get a lot of questions from our guests about what to see & do in Cologne besides visit the Cologne Cathedral.

Of course, every walking tour we offer discusses the Cologne Cathedral. But we also believe there is SO much more to Cologne than just the Dom.

👉 Today we are starting a new series called” Tips from a Tour Guide” 🇩🇪

The first spot we’re featuring is Cathedral Treasury (or Domschatzkammer in German).

This hidden museum is a place hardly any of our guests seem to know about. Yet it's one of the richest church treasuries in Germany.

👉 It holds centuries of religious art and reliquaries in a series of vaulted medieval rooms beneath the cathedral.
