BONN

The Federal Capital has a total population of 300,000. Despite a turbulent history covering almost 2000 years, Bonn is still a young lively city with high recreation value. Museums with exquisite exhibitions, the opera, theaters and ballet with noteworthy performances, ‘underground’ and pub theaters, concerts by internationally famous rock and pop artists, and the all-out ‘Bonner Sommer’ in the streets and squares of the city reflect the broad cultural spectrum of Beethoven’s home town.
