In Cologne, Germany, Great St. Martin Church towers over Fishmarket Square, with it’s 14th to 17th century townhouses and open-air cafes. I visited Cologne as part of my hosted Viking River Cruises Grand European Tour.

What’s the significance of the numbers and symbols on the front of the houses?
Hi Larry – don’t know the significance of the symbols, but the numbers are the year the houses were built. For instance, the green and orange one at the left (which is actually one house) was built in 1935, while the grey one in the middle was built in 1685.
