Bonn

Some impressions from my last visit to the former capital of Germany - Bonn.

B O N N = Bundeshauptstadt Ohne Nennenswertes Nachtleben

(Capital without noteworthy nightlife)

I like this city with its about 320.000 habitants. And I can recommend a visit of the architecture, the museums, the nature, the Rhein.

Nearby is the "Siebengebirge". The story goes that in these hills the teuton hero "Siegfried" killed the dragon and took a bath in its blood to become invulnerable. But he was betrayed and another hero "Hagen von Tronje" killed him from behind.

In revenge his wife Kriemhild - now married to Atilla the Hun - has had killed Hagen and the whole family.

The german saga "Nibelungenlied" is a bloody and cruel story about love, betrayal, a treasure and death.
