Path of famous personalities (Bonn)
As part of a joint campaign by the Bonner General-Anzeiger and the city of Bonn , the "Path of Famous Personalities" was inaugurated in Bonngasse in 2005 . The readers of the General-Anzeiger chose the 16 "heads" that can be seen today in Bonngasse from a list of 32 suggested names that was drawn up by the Bonn Cultural Council. This path was expanded by six people in 2007 when Friedrichstrasse was redesigned . In May 2015 the path was extended by a 23rd element.
