Fischmarkt

Nähe Heumarkt, Altstadt, Cologne, Germany

 

There are very few reminders nowadays that the inhabitants of Cologne once bought and sold fish. One such is the Fischmarkt, next to the Rheingarten. The former fishery, which made a good profit particularly in Lent, when fish was the staple diet for the inhabitants of the city, is now called the Stapelhaus. The late-gothic buildings themselves, however, have been preserved in their original style. Nowadays, the Fischmarkt is a charming market square with many pubs and guest-houses.
