Cologne, Germany

A second day trip farther into Germany led us to Cologne with its imposing Dom (cathedral) that survived WWII even though the rest of the city was flattened. In 2007 a new stained glass window, created by artist Gerhard Richter, replaced a plain glass window that filled a damaged portion of the many windows. It is composed of 11,500 identically sized pieces of colored glass, resembling pixels, randomly arranged by computer.
