View over the former Cologne Charterhouse with the Carthusian church (St. Barbara's). To the right are the conventual buildings, while to the left behind the church is the red-brick chapter house. In front of the church are the sacristy, the Lady Chapel and the Angel Chapel. The great cloister once stood on the piece of ground behind. Right at the back the round tower of the Ulre Gate (Ulrepforte) indicates the course of the Kartäuserwall, which marked the southern boundary of the Carthusian precinct
Cologne Charterhouse (German: Kölner Kartause) was a Carthusian monastery or charterhouse established in the Severinsviertel district, in the present Altstadt-Süd, of Cologne, Germany. Founded in 1334, the monastery developed into the largest charterhouse in Germany[1] until it was forcibly dissolved in 1794 by the invading French Revolutionary troops. The building complex was then neglected until World War II, when it was mostly destroyed. The present building complex is very largely a post-war reconstruction. Since 1928, the Carthusian church, dedicated to Saint Barbara, has belonged to the Protestant congregation of Cologne.
