Bonn, once the capital of West Germany, sits along the Rhine and combines impressive cultural sites with the charm of a smaller city. With 330,000 residents, it was Germany’s political center from 1949 to 1990, until reunification moved the government to Berlin. Even today, Bonn remains important: 20 federal ministries and many international organizations, including UN agencies, are still based here. The Museum Mile draws over a million visitors each year to its museums about postwar German history. Bonn is also famous as the birthplace of Ludwig van Beethoven, and his influence can be felt throughout the old town, where his 1770 birth house is carefully preserved. Free walking tours show how this quiet city became a global capital, played a key role during the Cold War, and later became Germany’s “second capital” and a UNESCO City of Sustainability.
