The University of Bonn was founded on October 18, 1818 by King Friedrich Wilhelm III. founded by Prussia, who ruled the Rhineland since 1815. It was the third new Prussian university to be founded in the spirit of Wilhelm von Humboldt, after Berlin (1810, today Humboldt University) and Breslau (1811).

The most beautiful view is actually on the other side from the courtyard garden (when the construction site is finished again).

The electoral palace is the main building of the University of Bonn and was once the residence of the Cologne electors. Today the building, including the courtyard garden, is a listed building. The castle was built between 1567 and 1577. In the years 1715-1723 Robert de Cotte opened the building to the south and expanded the ensemble to include the courtyard garden. With the long east wing, the building extends almost to the Rhine.
