The KÖLNTURM towers 165 metres above the MediaPark, Cologne’s innovative media and communications location.
“A location for working, living and relaxing, surrounded by water and public parks, right in the heart of Cologne” – this was the vision outlined for the MediaPark over 20 years ago. Only 10 minutes from Cologne Cathedral, the city council chose this 200,000 m2 site to develop a dynamic, prime location for the growing media industry.
That vision has long since been realised. Around 250 national and international service and media companies with approximately 5,000 employees have located here, from leading industries to ambitious start-ups.
The MediaPark is characterised by high-quality architecture. Extensive park areas and water features, bars and restaurants, a lakeside terrace, cinemas and fitness studios, offer opportunities for relaxation and pleasure.
The MediaPark acts as a magnet: unique cultural institutions such as the Museum of Dance and the German Dance Archive, star-studded film premieres at the Cinedom cinema, glittering events and the nationally renowned choice of vocational and continuing education attract more than 4 million people to this dynamic part of the city every year.
Finally, the MediaPark is also within easy reach of Cologne city centre with
its restaurants, bars, culture, attractive venues and shops. Perfect for a
spot of shopping during your lunch break or for relaxing at the end of the
working day.
