Cologne’s twelve Romanesque churches
These churches are stunning works of art that are located in the heart of the city, and have their own uniqueness. These buildings are some of the most sacred pieces of religious architecture in Western Europe, and during the Romanesque Summer in Cologne, they become transformed into stunning stages for an unforgettable musical experience. Concerts and performances by international artists will be held until late at night with a vibrant ambience.
Theme for 2022
The theme for this year is Swing which encapsulates the resonance of life. The concerts will be emulating this through the use of echoes and reverberations throughout their performances.
