TOUR HIGHLIGHTS

Located just a short walk from the railway station in the heart of Bonn, the Leoninum is a tranquil oasis within the city. Built in 1897 for the diocese of Aachen and Bonn, the building housed the priests’ seminary of the archbishopric of Cologne. A modern hotel has been built within its protected walls, which also doubles as an exclusive retirement residence. As such, rooms are very generous in size and facilities. The hotel also boasts Leo’s Restaurant, named after Pope Leo XIII, a pool, sauna and fitness room. Within the hotel still stands the ‘Old Church’, built in neo-Gothic style.

★ ★ Travel First Class rail to Germany, including Standard Premier Eurostar ★ ★ Stay in a calm oasis in central Bonn in the former monastic school ★ ★ Visit Beethoven’s House Museum
