With the high-speed Eurostar and ICE trains, getting from Brussels to Cologne by train is very easy. The journey to Germany’s “fun loving capital” takes less than 2 hours.
After a stop in Liège and in Aachen, you’ll arrive at Köln Hbf, Cologne’s main train station. Set right next to the celebrated cathedral on the left bank of the Rhine, the station is located within a few minutes walk from the shopping district, the main museums and many more attractions. The station’s also a major rail hub for journeys to other destinations in Germany, but also to Switzerland, Austria, Scandinavia, Central and Eastern Europe.
At the request of the security forces, passengers of international trains may be subject to security checks at Brussels-Midi, Antwerp-Central and Liège-Guillemins stations from 14/06/24 to 08/09/24.
These checks (which may include identity checks and luggage searches) are non-systematic and non-permanent and are carried out by accredited security personnel.
Considering the possibility of such security checks, we suggest that passengers travelling abroad anticipate a safe time margin and get to the platform about 30 minutes in advance.
Travellers are also asked to present their identity document and should not be in possession of any suspicious items or items that could endanger other travellers.
