District

Poll

Part of borough Porz

Poll sits on the right bank of the Rhine, southeast of the city centre, and was incorporated into Cologne together with Deutz in 1888. With the municipal reorganisation of 1975 it took on a special role: since then Poll has been the only district from Cologne's older urban area to be administered by the borough of Porz. That borough was created at the same time, largely from the territory of the former town of Porz.
