St. Augustusburg Palace

While I was struggling with a German test at the Goethe Institute and Daniel was working on a math presentation he has to give tomorrow, Marion and Irwin were out having fun in Bruhl, a small town about 20 minutes by train from Bonn.

The town is famous for the Augustusburg Palace, a Rococo masterpiece and one of the most significant buildings of its kind in Germany. The palace is surrounded by a beautiful Baroque garden, similar to the one I visited in Versailles, although much much smaller. I actually took a tour of the Augustusburg Palace and Garden last week with my classmates from the Goethe Institute, but haven't been able to fit the post or pictures in until now.
