Wenn die Sonne scheint fällt ein wunderschönes Licht auf die blauen Fenster Scheiben was eine tolle Atmosphäre gibt. Auch die Messer war wunderschön gemacht. Habe zwar nichts verstanden da in (Italienisch oder Spanisch) gesprochen wurde, doch es war eine tolle Atmosphäre. Auch die Musik die dort gespielt wurde war sehr schön. Zur Zeit sind noch schöne Grippen auf gestellt die wirklich toll gemacht sind. Da bewegen sich auch einige Figuren. Einfach auch sehenswert. **************************************************** Beautiful church.

    St. Mary's Assumption in Cologne The Catholic parish church of St. Mary of the Assumption was after the cathedral for a long time the largest church in Cologne and is one of the few remaining architectural evidence of Baroque in the city. The former collegiate church of the Jesuits, located on Marzellenstraße near the cathedral. It has heavy wrought-iron fences outside and inside. The inside fences prevent you from enjoying the relics.

    The do service in italian. It is a wonderful church for Catholics. It may look massive from outside but there is not that much space for people from inside but that doesn't make it bad because its structure is built that way and it is unique in its own way. It is also quite different from rest of the churches in Cologne. It located near the central station as well. It is worth visiting when it is the time of Christmas. Have a visit and see for yourself.

    For a long time, St. Mary's Assumption was the largest church in Cologne after Cologne Cathedral. It is a former Jesuit college church. The foundation stone was laid in 1618. During the Second World War the church was extremely damaged by bombing raids. It was rebuilt from 1949 - 1979.

    Seldom seen such an impressive church. It's a shame that you can't go into the chancel. But there will probably be reasons for that. 5 minutes walk from the cathedral, so be sure to check it out next time you visit Cologne.

    (Translated by Google) The Church of the Assumption of Santa Maria was for a long time the second largest church in Cologne. It is a church with three naves with galleries. The western entrance was built according to the Jesuit model, accompanied by two towers. In 1629 it was put into operation. It suffered severe damage during the bombings of the Second World War. It is very well restored. (Original) la iglesia de la Asunción de Santa Maria fue durante mucho tiempo la segunda iglesia en importancia de Colonia. Es una iglesia de tres naves con galerías. La entrada occidental se construyó según el modelo jesuita, acompañado por dos torres. En 1629 se puso en funcionamiento. Sufrió severos daños durante los bombardeos de la segunda guerra mundial. Está muy bien restaurada.

    The Catholic parish church of St. Mary of the Assumption was (after the cathedral) for a long time the largest church in Cologne and is one of the few remaining buildings of Baroque in the city. The former collegiate church of the Jesuits, located on Marzellenstraße near the cathedral, was built according to the plans of Christoph Wamser, who had already built the Jesuit church in Molsheim in Alsace. This church also served as a role model for the construction of St. Mary's Ascension. The foundation stone was laid in 1618.

    (Translated by Google) A beautiful catholic church in indirect vicinity of Cologne Cathedral. Were there at Christmas time. The lovingly designed nativity play is charming. Around the entrance are motifs with life scenes from the Holy Land of the Nativity Times. In any case, during the Christmas season is worth seeing. Also witnessed the Natale del Signore. The classic "The Silent Night" in Italian and with organ accompaniment was the crowning glory. (Original) Eine schöne Katolische Kirche in mittelbarer Nähe vom Kölner Dom. Waren dort zur Weihnachtszeit. Bezaubern ist die liebevoll gestaltetes Krippenspiel. Rund um Eingang sind Motive mit Lebensszenen aus Heiligem Land der Zeiten Geburt Christi ausgestellt. In der Weihnachtszeit ist jedenfalls sehenswert. Haben ebenfalls die Natale del Signore miterlebt. Der Klassiker "Die Stille Nacht" auf italianisch und mit Orgelbegleitung war die Krönung.

    (Translated by Google) A church very different from the rest of Cologne, probably because it belongs to the Jesuit order, is located very close to the central station so it is worth jumping there (Original) Uma igreja muito diferente das restantes de Colónia, provavelmente por pertencer à ordem jesuíta, está localizada bem perto da estação central pelo que vale a pena dar um salto por lá

    (Translated by Google) Waste of space. Should be expropriated and converted. In the city so many nonsensical churches take away space for no purpose, this is one of them! (Original) Platzverschwendung. Sollte enteignet und umfunktioniert werden. In der Stadt nehmen so viele unsinnige Kirchen Platz für keinen Zweck weg, dies ist eine davon!

    A beautiful Christmas mass. It was just, in contrast to the times before Corona, less attended. But it doesn't spoil the celebration. Come back next year. Note: Come specifically from Kerpen. An old tradition for 50 years, from the time when we still lived in Cologne.

    ST.Mary of the Assumption is the only Parish Church built 1629 in Cologne in Baroque Style and was at it's time the second largest Church after the Cathedral. The architecture is unique and worth a visit.

    (Translated by Google) Unexpected baroque. Useful for Italians who want a mass in their language. I would have expected more explanation about the activities of the Catholic mission than those on the bulletin board on the street seen from the right side by chance. (Original) Barocco inaspettato. Utile per italiani che vogliono una messa nella loro lingua. Mi sarei aspettato qualche spiegazione in più sulle attività della missione cattolica oltre quelle nella bacheca in strada vista dal lato giusto per caso.

    (Translated by Google) After leaving Cologne Central Station, what is the pink building behind Rolex ...? I tried to visit. The entrance was confusing and I entered it through the door opposite the Hilton. The inside is beautiful, but the space to move is not large, so a bench? Is less. But the moving dolls and the altar in the back were wonderful. (Original) ケルン中央駅を出て、ロレックスの奥のピンクの建物は何だろ…?と訪問してみました。入口が分かりにくく、ヒルトンの道向かいのドアから入れました。中はキレイですが、動けるスペースは大きくなく、ベンチ?は少ないです。でも、動く人形や奥に見える祭壇も素敵でした。

    (Translated by Google) The front of the church is integrated in the street escape and is therefore striking only at second glance. Very worth seeing interior with imposing altarpiece. Festive with fir trees at Christmas time and decorated with fairy lights. Simple and very nice. In addition, various cribs are to be viewed. (Original) Die Front der Kirche ist in der Straßenflucht integriert und fällt dadurch erst auf den zweiten Blick ins Auge. Sehr sehenswerter Innenraum mit imposantem Altarbild.

    Last Saturday we got at the church planning for a visit. Apparently a marriage was scheduled at 14:30 and at 14:05 we were not allowed entrance. Plain ridiculous.
