Guided Story

Can you hear that gentle ringing above you? That's the carillon, a real gem nestled in the heart of Bad Godesberg's city park. Imagine those melodic chimes being the centerpiece of the 1979 Federal Garden Show before finding their permanent home here. Look around; the bells are elegantly housed in a modern tower that beautifully complements the surrounding nature. They say that on special occasions, top musicians from the region gather to bring the carillon to life. If you're lucky, you might just be witnessing one of those magical moments. And while the music floats in the air, consider taking a quick detour to the Little Theater just southwest of here.
