Berliner Platz

Can you catch the aroma of freshly brewed coffee? It often wafts over the square, especially from the little cafés tucked around here. Look up – the impressive Stadthaus to the north dominates the area with its modern architecture. Did you know that beneath this square there once lay a Roman camp? Bonn's history stretches way back, and right here, where you're standing, traders and soldiers once crossed paths. Turn around: to the west, you can see the monument of Barthold Georg Niebuhr, one of Germany's most notable historians. This spot might just inspire you to uncover the many stories Bonn has to tell, as you enjoy the bustling life surrounding you.
