Description:
Exterior detail: view from the street looking through railings into the Chapel, which is part of the Art museum of the archbishopric of Cologne. The museum was founded in 1853 but the gothic buildings in which it was housed were badly damaged in the war, though most of the collections, stored elsewhere, survived. A "Madonna in the Ruins" Chapel was constructed (Gottfried Böhm, 1949) as a shrine to a figure of Mary which had survived the bombing, but the collection was shown elsewhere until a new building was completed (Peter ZUMTHOR, 2007) encompassing and incorporating the ruins of the older structure.
