The photograph shows a narrow old town street in Cologne from an elevated perspective, lined with a dense crowd of onlookers. In the middle of the street, a procession moves forward with a horse-drawn carriage and uniformed personnel accompanying the parade. On the left side of the image, the business sign “Altengarten Sönner – Kristall” is visible on a building, indicating an inner-city location. The spectators are dressed predominantly in summer and street clothing of the 1930s; men wearing hats and straw hats dominate the image. In the travel film, this shot serves as a vivid urban scene of Cologne and complements views of Cologne Cathedral with a scene of public life in the old town.
