Aachen / Aken / Aix-la-Chapelle is a 2000 year old city, known
already in Roman times. It is located at the edge of Germany, Belgium and
Holland. It hosts probably the best Technical University in Germany, providing
a conservative but very well based education to generations of engineers.
In Aachen we stayed at a home of our friends. We enjoyed great hospitality, local German cousine, magnificent garden and art deco challenging best staged displays. |
