How did the “Bonn Republic” come about? Everyone knows that Bonn was once the capital. But how did it happen? Why this small, tranquil town on the Rhine and not the pulsating metropolis of Berlin? The Basic Law is drawn up in Bonn: After the end of World War II, Germany's cities lay in ruins. In Bonn, which got off comparatively lightly, attempts are being made cautiously to breathe new life into the ideologically and structurally destroyed country with a modern constitution and freely elected representatives. Bonn becomes the seat of government: But not only the constitution for post-war Germany was born in Bonn. Bonn also receives the provisional seat of government. The "Bonn Republic" is born. The tour starts at the Museum Koenig and leads along the Adenauerallee, past the Federal Press Office to today's United Nations Square. The final stop is the Bundesbüdchen with a view of the high-rise buildings "Langer Eugen" and the Post Tower, which are characteristic of Bonn.

Ideal for those who have never visited Bonn or are rediscovering it for themselves and would like an entertaining general overview of the city, its history and the sights (Bonn 'light'). On this general tour, we head for the outstanding postcard motifs of the city center and place them in the context of important protagonists. A slight emphasis is placed on the electors and Beethoven. It becomes clear why Bonn still offers aesthetic public spaces and is internationally known.
