Bonn-Poppelsdorf

In the middle of Bonn is the district of Bonn-Poppelsorf, which is home to around 6,300 residents. The trendy district of Poppelsdorf is known for its hustle and bustle and is appreciated for its close proximity to the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, the botanical garden of the University of Bonn, the city center and the Bonn hotspots. There are numerous university institute buildings on Meckenheimer Allee and Nussallee, some of them from the 19th century, including the Old Chemical Institute. In Poppelsdorf and especially in the adjacent districts of Südstadt and Weststadt there are still many residential buildings from the Gründerzeit (approx. 1840-1873) and Historicism (approx. 1870-1910). The extensive Poppelsdorfer Friedhof, one of the oldest cemeteries in Bonn, as well as the Melbbad, an open-air swimming pool in a mountainous park, are also located in this elegant district. Sights include the Mineralogical Museum housed in the Poppelsdorf baroque palace, the Goldfuss Museum with its large collection of fossils and the Lutheran Church, the only Neo-Renaissance church in the Rhineland.

On the "Poppelsdorfer Meile" there are numerous and varied restaurants, cozy cafés and chic bars, which are primarily aimed at students and lecturers at the university. Everything you need for everyday life can be found here, from pharmacies, banks, bakeries, florists, boutiques, hairdressers, grocery stores, butchers and supermarkets, opticians, stationery and gift shops to newsagents.

Poppelsdorf has good transport connections, so you can reach the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) or the city center in a short time with various bus lines. You can be in the city center in a few minutes by bike, and it takes about 15 minutes on foot.
