Reviews from Google
Hohenzollern Bridge (Hohenzollernbrücke) can be seen from different points around the city, but my favorite view is from the KölnTriangle viewpoint. I also walked across it back and forth, and it made for a great stroll with beautiful views along the way. Recommended!
The bridge is excellent for walking, biking, the train and has great views. It is covered with locks, from lovers who pledge their love for each other, inscribed their names or initials, locked them and thrown away the keys to live happily ever after together. It is a site to behold.
I really enjoyed walking on that bridge. Very nice view and the construction itself is very impressive with millions the padlocks in some places hanging like bunches of grapes.
Great way to enjoy Koln and the Cathedral. It don't take long to cross from the Cathedral so I would recommend crossing this bridge if you have time.
This bridge was a nice stroll to and from the cathedral. It has a wide area on both sides of the bridge for walking on riding a bike. I loved all of the locks. Nice views of the river.
