Top 7 Churches & Cathedrals in Bonn, North Rhine-Westphalia
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.

With rain threatening and having just arrived in Bonn I negotiated with a taxi driver to take met to the church and wait to bring me back into the city. Had a stroke of luck when he was very excited to do this because he loves this church. Made a flat rate and didn't charge me the waiting time as he wanted to visit the church as well The church is beautiful inside with beautiful murals With the upper church meant for the nobility, I pictured them getting up there via the narrow staircase :) This church is really a must see doesn't matter which way you choose to get there

"This place is temporarily closed."
Reviewed By KodoDrummer - Yekaterinburg, Russia
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.

After a full fledged restoration this church is a master example of sacral architecture. The baroque altar: a masterpiece.A remarcable photo- exhibition about the fate of Holocaust victims to be shown and to be seen.
