St. Maria Lyskirchen

The one exception among the twelve: every other church in the group was more or less severely damaged by the bombing of Cologne, and this one was not. The list of the twelve dates the foundation to 948, and the Förderverein titles its account poor and rich. It holds the rank of basilica minor.
