October 2, 2021,Bonifatiusstieg Planung

Out of a total of 11 information boards, only 9 have been created. The route is not yet available either. Nevertheless, the tour is worthwhile because it allows unusual views of the city and its surroundings. The information boards are enlightening. The historical recordings are particularly helpful. The tour starts well at the Bonifatius Monument, the planned 10th stop.
