The image is a close-up of a manhole cover. The cover is made of metal and has a circular shape with a grid-like pattern around the edges. In the center of the cover, there is a coat of arms with two crossed swords and a shield. Above the shield, there are two birds, one on each side, with the words "Stadt Koln" (German for "Stadium" and "Wasserung" written above them. Below the shield and shield, the word "Koln" is written in German. The overall design is ornate and appears to be old and weathered.
