TimeRide Cologne: Guided VR City Tour

The experience

Travel through time in real locations using virtual reality

Explore Cologne's history on guided walking tour that combines visits to the city's landmarks with virtual reality. Follow your guide through Cologne's Old Town and stop at seven locations.

At each stop, use a VR headset to see nine 360° scenes that show how the city looked during different periods of its history, from the Roman era and the Middle Ages to French and Prussian rule and the present day.

Compare historic reconstructions with the modern city from the same viewpoint and see how Cologne changed over more than 2,000 years.

Along the way, your guide will share stories about the city's landmarks, people, and major events.
