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.

De Siegfried Linie uit 1937, bij grens in Heerlen /Kerkrade (Beethoven, no.9).
Door General Patton omschreven als:Fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of mankind. In totaal besloegen de bijkomende stellingen en objecten 18.000 in allerlei verschillende varianten. Op strategische plekken waar tanks zouden kunnen doorbreken waren versperringen aangebracht, de zogenaamde Höcker-hindernis, de bekende 'drakentanden'. In WO I, 1914-1918,was Nederland neutraal en al bekend met de Siegfried. De Westwall werd door Hitler in 1937 begonnen, bij de geallieerden ook bekend als de Siegfried-linie (strijdbewijs.nl) .Het was een in Duitsland over ca. 630km verdeeld verdedegingssysteem, dat bestond uit meer dan 18000 bunkers, onderaardse gangen en andere verdedigingswerken. Een verdedigingslinie opgetrokken tussen Aken en Kerkrade van betonnen kruisen is er nog steeds in Richterich(D). Deze linie, tussen 1937 en 1939 opgetrokken, liep langs de hele grens van Duitsland en Nederland. Na WO II is de linie zogoed als geruimd, een klein stukje valt nog te bezichtigen bij de grensovergang De Locht in Kerkrade. Het is zo stevig geconstrueerd dat hij tot op de dag van vandaag bewaard is gebleven. Het is een herinnering aan de fysieke oorlogsvoering in de vorige eeuw en al haar gesneuvelden. Door General Patton omschreven als:Fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of mankind.
Germany: Domplatz in Köln (3/3) 2012-08-08(Wed)0723hrs
- Der Bau des Kölner Doms am Rhein begann im Jahre 1248. Die gotische Architektur wurde nach der Kathedrale von Amiens in Nordfrankreich modelliert. Im Jahre 1322 war der Chor vollendet, aber der Bau wurde 1560 wegen des Mangels an Geld verhaftet. Es gab sogar eine Diskussion des Abrisses im Jahr 1801, aber der Plan wurde nie in die Praxis umgesetzt. 1815 ordnete der preußische König Friedrich Wilhelm III. (1770-1840; Regierungszeit 1797-1840) den Dom restauriert und vervollständigt zu werden, inmitten romantischer Begeisterung für das Mittelalter; 1880 sah die Vollendung des Bauwerkes. Obwohl er ursprünglich als eine mittelalterliche gotische Architektur erbaut wurde, wird er manchmal als Neugotic bezeichnet, weil sein Bau im 19. Jahrhundert wieder aufgenommen wurde. Der Dom wurde seit 1996 als UNESCO-Welterbe klassifiziert. Dieser Videofilm zeigt das Domplatz.
- La construction de la Cathédrale de Cologne sur le Rhin a commencée en 1248. L'architecture gothique a été calquée sur la Cathédrale d'Amiens au nord de la France. En 1322, le chœur a été achevé, mais la contruction s'a arrêtée en 1560 en raison du manque d'argent. Il y avait même une conférence de démolition en 1801, mais le plan n'a jamais été mis en pratique. En 1815, le roi de Prusse Frédéric-Guillaume III (1770-1840; règne 1797-1840) a ordonné la Cathédrale pour être restaurée et complétée au milieu de l'enthousiasme romantique pour le Moyen Age; 1880 a vu son achèvement. Bien que construit à l'origine comme une architecture médiévale gothique, la Cathédrale est parfois qualifiée de néo-gothique car sa construction a été reprise au cours de la période néo-gothique au 19ème siècle. Elle a été désignée comme site du Patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 1996. Cette séquence video montre la Place de la Cathédrale à Cologne.
- Construction of Cologne Cathedral on the River Rhine started in 1248. The Gothic architecture was modelled after Amiens Cathedral in northern France. In 1322 the chancel was completed, but the contruction halted in 1560 owing to the lack of money. There was even a talk of demolition in 1801, but the plan was never put into practice. In 1815 Prussian King Frederick William III (1770-1840; reign 1797-1840) ordered the Cathedral to be restored and completed amidst romantic enthusiasm for the Middle Ages; 1880 saw its completion. Though originally built as a mediæval Gothic architecture, it is sometimes classified as Neo-Gothic since its construction was resumed during the Gothic Revival period in the 19th century. It has been designated as a Unesco World Heritage site since 1996. This video footage shows Cathedral Square in Cologne.
フランス北部のアミアン大聖堂を模して1248年着工。1322年に内陣まで完成。資金難の爲1560年に工事中斷。1801年に取り壊し計畫が持ち上がるが實現せず。1815年に中世への浪漫主義的關心が髙まる中でプロイセン王フリードリヒ・ヴィルヘルム三世(1770-1840; 在位1797-1840)が修復及び工事續行を命じ、1880年に完成した。元來は中世のゴシック樣式として建造されたが、中斷されてゐた工事が再開されたのが、十九世紀のゴシック復興期に當る爲、ネオ・ゴシック建築として分類されることもある。1996年にユネスコ世界文化遺產に登錄濟。此動畫はケルン大聖堂廣場を捉へてゐる。
