Open Space: SAMMEL-LEIDENSCHAFT

In the organizer's words:

To mark the 200th anniversary of the death of Cologne collector Ferdinand Franz Wallraf, our OPEN SPACE is now dedicated to Cologne's passion for collecting - from the 19th century to the present day!

With his collection - over 40,000 works of art and historical objects - Wallraf laid the foundations for Cologne's museums.

But we're not just looking at this manic collector: come along and discover what prominent Cologne residents - such as musician Wolfgang Niedecken or former cathedral architect Prof. Dr. Barbara Schock-Werner - collect today: from curiosities to banal things, from lightning strikes to alarm clocks!

The best thing about it: you can take part yourself!

What are you collecting? Become part of the OPEN SPACE with your treasures!

Post photos of your favorite pieces on Instagram under #kölnsammelt.
Or send them to us at: Social-Media-Team@stadt-koeln.de

Everything is welcome: Sneakers, handbags, shells, marbles, comics, watches, autograph cards, bicycle tires...
