Church of St. Ursula

Church of St. Ursula

The Church of St. Ursula is located in Cologne in the Rheinland. It is built upon the ancient ruins of a Roman Cemetery, where the 11,000 virgins associated with the legend of Saint Ursula were supposedly buried. The Church has an impressive reliquary created from the bones of the former occupants of the cemetery.
