Get to Know Beethoven in 2020

I’m sure there are a few things you could name about Ludwig van Beethoven off the top of your head: He’s one of the most famous composers of all time. He went deaf. His Symphony Number 9 is played in many movies and television shows… but there is so much more to Beethoven than you realize. We were lucky enough to visit Bonn, Germany this past month to celebrate Beethoven’s 250^th anniversary. On this trip, we learned about who Beethoven was as a person and how his environment and the political turmoil of his time affected him and his music.

Bonn, Germany isn’t always the first place in Europe we think of visiting when the thought of a European vacation crosses our minds. But the hidden gems that we don’t always think about sometimes wind up holding the greatest experiences for us. And that’s what you’ll find in Bonn. Bonn, Germany is filled with arts, culture, and music, and it is a must-visit for your 2020 travel.
