About 1,5 - 2 hours and 2,5 km further on, you will not only have seen the most beautiful spots of the city during this city walk in Bonn, but you will also have done the local police a favour by finding one of the city's biggest criminals... The Bonn Boss.

With this Escape the City Tour you will see the highlights of Bonn. A few you can see below.

The Kurfürstliches Schloss in Bonn is a grand Baroque palace that once served as the residence of the prince-electors of Cologne. Today, it houses parts of the University of Bonn and is surrounded by the peaceful Hofgarten, creating a blend of historical elegance and academic life.

The Beethoven Monument in Bonn is a striking bronze statue of Ludwig van Beethoven that has stood since 1845 on Münsterplatz, his birthplace. The figure captures the composer inspired and mid‑composition, proudly holding a writing quill and gazing upward. A beloved landmark and photo spot today, the monument also inspired the first Beethoven Festival in Bonn.

The Bonner Münster in Bonn is one of Germany’s oldest churches, built between the 11th and 13th centuries in elegant Romanesque and Gothic styles. This five‑towered basilica stands on the traditional gravesite of the city’s patron martyrs Cassius and Florentius and has been a spiritual and civic landmark for nearly a millennium.
