Guided Story

Imagine standing before a structure that almost resembles a piece of modern art seamlessly blending into Bonn's landscape. Look up, and you'll see the crisp, clean lines of the Schürmann-Bau reaching into the sky. Originally slated for completion in the 1990s, this building's debut was delayed due to a devastating flood of the Rhine, a testament to nature's power. Behind you, to the west, lies the Max Planck Institute, offering a glimpse into the world of scientific discovery. The Schürmann-Bau stands not only as an office building but as a symbol of resilience and adaptability. Its architecture invites you to find beauty in its functionality and design.
