Though probably best known as the capital of West Germany from 1949 to 1990 (and of reunified Germany until 1999), Bonn actually has a history dating back to the 1st century BC. Roman soldiers were stationed here and the largest known Roman fort was built at Bonn. In medieval times, the town gained prominence when the Archbishop of Cologne transferred his seat to Bonn. The city's most famous son is Ludwig van Beethoven, born in 1770 at Bonngasse, where a museum now honors him.

This is such a beautiful fountain with lots to enjoy. The children chasing the ducks are very well done. Really worthwhile to stop and enjoy

You might easily miss the place, which I did. The Beethoven House is filled with history and culture; avail of the Audio Guide for better understanding of the treasures inside. Staff were also friendly and helpful.

City music day brings lots of musicians and performers to different corners all over the town, together with the weekend market the city hall and the square was full of life.

The statue's fine, but the location in Munsterplatz is brilliant. We were there during the Christmas market, and of the 4 we saw down the Rhine, this was the best. Highly recommended. Want to go back.

"This place is temporarily closed."
This is a beautiful Roman Catholic church, built over the 11th to 13th century. Its architecture is Romanesque and somewhat unique. The organ and its pipe trumpets look very nice. The organ has four upper keyboards, plus the foot keyboard. It is a very complex instrument to play. The church has beautiful stained-glass windows, especially for those who like a lot of blue colour in the mosaics. The ends of the aisle pews are ornate. For the church of its size, it has a large number of sculptures. It is very amassing the such a beautiful church was build in a small community about 800 to 1,000 years ago.

After a full fledged restoration this church is a master example of sacral architecture. The baroque altar: a masterpiece.A remarcable photo- exhibition about the fate of Holocaust victims to be shown and to be seen.
