August Macke-Haus
Northern Rhineland

Museum Koenig
Northern Rhineland
　　The Museum Koenig is a natural history museum but it’s hardly your usual dead-animal zoo. The ‘Savannah’ exhibit re-creates an entire habitat with theatrical flourishes: elephants drinking at a watering hole, a jaguar holed up with its kill and vultures surveying the scene from above. In the 'Rainforest' diorama elephants...
Kunstmuseum Bonn
Northern Rhineland
　　Beyond its dramatic foyer, the Kunstmuseum Bonn presents 20th-century works, especially by August Macke and other Rhenish expressionists, as well as such post-WWII avant-gardists as Beuys, Baselitz and Kiefer.

Considered one of the most beautiful Romanesque churches in Germany, its architecture is truly impressive, as is the...
Bundeskunsthalle
Northern Rhineland
　　Adjoining the Kunstmuseum Bonn, the Bundeskunsthalle (Federal Art Hall) is another striking space that brings in blockbuster exhibits from around the world. Despite the name, the hall doesn't necessarily showcase serious art; it also has exhibits that delve into the realms of history, science, technology and the environment. 　　The building...
Deutsches Museum Bonn
Northern Rhineland
　　Did you know that the airbag and MP3 technology were invented in Germany? You will, after visiting the Deutsches Museum Bonn.
