Bonn Tour – Beethoven, the Rhine, and Political History
A tour of Bonn combines the history of world music with the Rhineland way of life and the traces of a former federal capital. In the Old Town, you’ll come across the Old Town Hall, the Beethoven House, and the Electoral Palace. Bonn Cathedral and the Sterntor take you even further back in time and reveal the city’s medieval roots.
Qualified tour guides explain how Bonn evolved from a royal residence to a political center. In addition to historical context, the tours focus on people, stories, and anecdotes. This allows you to discover the city with an eye for details that are easily overlooked when exploring on your own.
“Discover Germany” offers both a walking tour of the Old Town and a separate guided tour of the former government district. Choose the focus that best suits your group’s interests: Beethoven and the city’s history, or the sites of the Bonn Republic. Both options provide a window into this city on the Rhine.
