What to expect

Enjoy a guided tour on the traces of English culture in Bonn!

The “small town in Germany” was always a topic for the British, and therefore, the British were a topic for the Bonners. British artists, soldiers, students lived in Bonn on aristocratic journeys or as spies as the Bonn University was a center of attraction for English scholars.

Listen to all the stories about British in Bonn: Why was Queen Victoria "not amused" during her visit to Bonn in 1845? Why did the English travel guides report so extensively on "German beds"? And why did the Macdonald affair escalate so much? Learn about diplomatic missions, about the English “colony” in Bonn and also when and why the British invaded Bonn as occupiers.
