Guided Tours

Welcome to Bonner Münster Basilica. This is a house of prayer and religious service, as well as an important monument in the history of European art.

It is open: 7.00 - 19.00 h - the cloister 9.00 - 17 h
Sightseeing is not allowed during our service.

In the last few years, the number of tour groups, with guides who speak loudly, has increased quite a bit. On the weekends, and in certain hours of the day, is it particularly unpleasant for guests in the Basilica. It is threatening the special character of the church and its spectacular interior .

Therefore, from the first of July, 2005, a new code of rules for tours in the Basilica is coming into force.
Only authorised tour guides will have permission to give tours in Bonner Münster.

Tour groups and travel companies have two choices if they would like to hold tours in Bonner Münster. Either they may book an authorised tour guide through “Bonn Information”, or they can be put into contact with an authorised tour guide via the visitor’s services of the Bonner Münster Foundation (Bonner-Münster Stiftung).
