What to do and see in Bonn, North Rhine-Westphalia: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks
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 old cementery is located very close from either main attractions of Bonn or railway station. It is great idea to take a walk there and rest a little from crowds.

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 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.
