House of Cologne

Glockengasse Nr.4711, House 4711, House of 4711
Germany, Cologne
The House of Cologne is the oldest perfume company in the world in the production of perfumes. This factory produces the famous water No. 4711. It got its name from the house number, which was assigned to the building by the French on the orders of the commandant. On the ground floor of the building there is a shop with various flavors of the brand. On the second floor, a large number of historical items are collected, including old photos, personal belongings of the owners of the house and many other curious artifacts that introduce the history of this place.

Disputes about who produced the first "water from Cologne" have been going on for a long time. And although the fragrances of the house "Farina" and the fragrances of 4711 differ like heaven and earth, they subsided only recently. It is this fragrance that is the oldest in Europe. A very beautiful building and a very interesting clock with music and walking guards. Unfortunately, I can't upload the video, but believe me, it's very interesting. There is a whole fountain of this liquid in the trading floor.
