Places to see in ( Aachen - Germany )
Aachen is a spa city near Germany’s borders with Belgium and the Netherlands. Aachen Cathedral was founded around 800 A.D. and a Gothic chancel was added later. Its Domschatzkammer (treasury) has medieval artifacts including the shrine of Charlemagne, who was buried here in 814 A.D. Nearby is the baroque town hall, Aachener Rathaus, with 19th-century frescoes. Sulfurous water fills the fountains of Elisenbrunnen.
Aachen has been around for millennia. The Romans nursed their war wounds and stiff joints in the steaming waters of its mineral springs, but it was Charlemagne who put the city firmly on the European map. The emperor, too, enjoyed a dip now and then, but it was more for strategic reasons that he made Aachen the geographical and political capital of his vast Frankish Empire in 974 – arguably the first empire with European dimensions.
Today, Aachen is still a quintessentially international city that gets unique appeal from its location in the border triangle with the Netherlands and Belgium. Charlemagne’s legacy lives on in the stunning Dom, which in 1978 became Germany’s first Unesco World Heritage Site, as well as in the new Centre Charlemagne and the Route Charlemagne walking trail. Aachen has a lively vibe that's further enhanced by a large student population.
Aachen is a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, at the point where Germany borders on Belgium and the Netherlands. Historically this spa-town was a prominent city, the place where the German Kings were crowned, and a famously favoured residence of Charlemagne who still lies buried in the impressive cathedral he himself had built. The city is packed with historic sights that remind of those days, including medieval buildings, city gates and beautiful fountains. Today, Aachen has become a pleasant mix of historic (often Baroque) grandeur and modern innovation. It has a population of 246,000 and is home to a large and highly regarded university. All in all, a place well worth visiting.
The old town is best explored on foot and orientation signs can be found all around. Aachen at a whole is a fairly large city. A car can come in handy but parking can get expensive, especially in the center of town. Fortunately, Aachen has an excellent city bus system, operated by ASEAG, including a few night bus lines. You can get tickets from the bus driver. You can rent a bike at the fahrrad station, in the central train station. Although it is not the most biker-friendly town in Germany, there are a number of bike routes and getting around on bike is increasingly popular. Taxis are readily available on the train stations but also on streets.

Tour de France in Aachen - Stage 2 - Düsseldorf to Liège
Today was the second stage of the Tour de France 2017 from Düsseldorf to Liège. The Tour de France passed by my hometown of Aachen! That was a great opportunity to watch it live!

The second stage of the tour de france or as they would say at the start “die zweite Etappe” or at the finish line “la seconde étape”. 200 km from Düsseldorf (Germany) to Liège (Belgium) and it is passing my town of Aachen where I could watch this cycling event.
It does happen maybe just once in my lifetime that I can see the Tour de France passing by my hometown. The last Grand Depart was 30 years ago…
However, the event started already last night with a small amateur cycling race in the city. And for me the tour day started early at 5:30 am to take some drone shots before the race starts.
I was looking for a great spot to watch this cycling race and I found one. At the market square of Aachen close to old town hall (Rathaus). I was there early and that was good because otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten a good place. 3 hours before the pro-cyclists were supposed to pass by I was standing there. But it was a lot of fun with the advertisement caravan and the spectacular atmosphere at the market square with the thousands of people watching.
Like 10 minutes before the peleton of the Tour de France 2017 cycled through the city center of Aachen, it started to rain… relatively heavily. I was a little scared about all the equipment which got pretty wet…
Anyways around 4pm it was finally the moment when we saw the cyclists at the end of the road. With about 40km/h they paced past us. You couldn’t’ really identify anyone. And the entire show was over after 2 minutes. But this two minutes were worth it!
Maybe someone who is not as much in love with cycling can’t understand why you would wait 3 hours in the rain to see 119 guys cycling past you in 2 minutes when you can’t really see them. But you have to be there and see it for yourself. Or just watch this video ;-)
P.S. I know this video is out of order but I’m a little behind with the editing and this day was so spectacular that I wanted to show this immediately…
Wednesday will be the next video uploaded from the US trip, stay tuned for that it will contain amazing drone footage!!

Bundesstraße 51 Bremen Richtung Diepholz (von Fahrenhorst nach Bassum)
Die Bundesstraße 51 führt von Stuhr bei Bremen über Diepholz nach Osnabrück und von dort weiter nach Münster. Größtenteils verläuft sie in der Nähe der Bundesautobahn 1. Abgesehen von der Ortsumgehung Bassum, verläuft sie noch heute auf der zwischen 1809 und 1813 errichteten napoleonischen Chaussee. Die Ortsumgehung wurde dagegen in den frühen 1990er Jahren gebaut.
