Excerpt from cologne.de:
The youngest Romanesque church in Cologne shapes the view of the Rhine in the north of the cathedral city. It was completed in 1247, one year before the foundation stone of Cologne Cathedral was laid. The relatively rich décor of the Middle Ages has been retained in St. Kunibert, which means that altars on the nave pillars depict the former character of the monastic church.
Of particular note is the monumental yet delicate Annunciation group from the 15th century, which marks the area of the former interior chancel. Equally important are the extensively retained murals in the chancel, the original flooring around the high altar and above all, the windows from the early 13th century. The new church treasury in the west nave is a rather modern attraction.
