The cathedral.

People are always climbing the walls of the Hohenzollernbrücke, the main railway bridge across the Rhine in Köln. Will this guy climb bare-footed?

Quiz question for the week: what is that at the side of these stairs leading up to the Hohenzollernbrücke?

    Omigosh! I hope it isn’t for pushing wheelchairs up. They might meet kids sliding down.

    I do love to see photos of that beautiful cathedral…and to think you were raised across the river from it, and within walking distance.
    Thank you.

    I think it’s too close to the wall to be for bikes.. so I’m thinking water drain…no..no…it’s got to be a bike ramp! I agree with Yumi!! Bike ramp.!

    I suspect it’s designed so that the skateboarders do not collide with pedestrians on the steps! ;-)
