La Redoute
The ball and concert house in classicist style is not only a real eye-catcher, but also serves as a venue for particularly exclusive events nowadays. Right next door is the " House on the Redoute", a former chamber theatre that is now used as an exhibition venue.
Rathaus in der Kurfürstlichen Zeile
If you are a fan of classicist architecture, Bad Godesberg is really the place to be. The town hall consists of six houses lined up next to each other, which were also built in the style of this era. Incidentally, these were originally built by Elector Max Franz as lodging houses.

Bad Godesberg mineral springs and Draitsch well
The two drinking water springs, the Kurfürstenquelle and the Draitschquelle, are said to have a health-promoting and healing effect.
