Where the world meets up
Office space in the MesseCity Cologne
Working together with STRABAG Real Estate we are developing MesseCity Cologne in a prime location. Between Koelnmesse and the Köln Messe/Deutz train station, six ultra-modern office and hotel properties with around 135,000 m² of floor space, including space for restaurants, service providers and retail outlets, will be built by fall 2024. The six buildings bear the names of stations from all over the world – places that are just as synonymous with exchanges, meetings and openness to the world as MesseCity Cologne.

The best connections
MesseCity Köln enjoys a prime location in Cologne, directly between Koelnmesse and the ICE and S-Bahn station Köln Messe/Deutz, and is within walking distance of the center of Cologne. Less than 500 meters away lies Deutzer Freiheit, the most popular shopping and strolling mile on the right bank of the Rhine, with plenty of cafés, restaurants, breweries and stores. Transport connections are also optimal: The Rhine/Main area is well joined up via various motorways, and the airports and central train stations of the metropolises Cologne, Düsseldorf and Frankfurt can also be reached quickly.
In the best neighborhood
The MesseCity is already 80 % let: In the western part, the main tenant is the Zurich Group Germany, which moved into its new headquarters on around 60,000 square metres in autumn 2019 with 2,800 employees. Other tenants include the rubber manufacturer Arlanxeo and gastronomes such as the restaurant chain L'Osteria. In the seven-storey "Southern Cross" building, which is located directly next to the so-called trade fair balcony at the entrance to Koelnmesse, a Motel One with more than 300 rooms and an Adina Apartment Hotel with around 170 studios and flats opened in spring 2021. The building was acquired by the DWS fund in early 2022 as part of an asset deal for €111 million. By 2025, the office complexes "Centraal" and "Rossio" will be built in the second construction phase. For the "Centraal", KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft is leaving Cologne's Barbarossaplatz after more than thirty years and moving its local branch office with 19,700 m² rental space to Cologne-Deutz.
Available areas
From 2022, the 30,000 square meter Rossio office building will be constructed in the eastern part of the quarter, and floorspace in it can still be secured. The rental space for the five- to ten-storey property can be combined as required from sizes ranging from 800 to 3,400 square meters of total space per level. In addition, there is an underground car park with 383 parking spaces as well as attractive roof terraces for the lease area on the fifth floor. We will gladly plan your personal space with you.
