Chocolate’s sweet scent often drifts here. Welcome to Beuel-Ost a district with many faces in Bonn. It’s a place where residential buildings meet industry.
Beuel-Ost boasts a rich industrial history. Once, it ranked among the most important industrial locations in the Rhineland. Today, some old factory buildings still remind us of that time.
Let’s talk about housing first. You’ll see everything from single-family homes to apartment buildings. Along Siegburger Straße, you will find the high-rise buildings from the 1960s. But that’s not all Beuel-Ost has to offer.
This area is also home to Beuel’s industrial area. Around 300 companies have settled here creating a hub of activity. This blend of living and working spaces makes Beuel-Ost unique.
Now, let’s talk about transportation. Beuel-Ost is well-connected. The Bonn-Beuel train station links it to the right bank of the Rhine. Plus, the A59 motorway makes it easy to reach by car. Getting around is simple whether you’re commuting or exploring.
Do you smell that? If the wind is right, you might catch a whiff of chocolate. The Kessko chocolate factory is nearby. Sometimes a sweet smell covers Beuel-Ost, even reaching Beuel-Mitte. It’s a delicious reminder of the industry here.
Did you notice the tracks? The tracks of the Rhein-Sieg-Eisenbahn railway run through Beuel-Ost’s industrial area. These tracks aren’t used as much anymore. But they are a reminder of the area’s past.
Let us turn to culture. The Halle Beuel on Siegburger Straße has a history. Since 1981, the Theater Bonn has used it. From 2016 it was a venue known as Schauspielhalle Beuel. Since October 2016, the Pantheon Theater has also called it home.
Do you see the buildings on Josef Thiebes Straße? These houses were once part of Beuel’s workers’ housing area. They offer a glimpse into the lives of the people who powered Beuel’s industrial growth.
Here, too, is the Beuel fire station of the Bonn fire brigade. It is located on Maarstraße.
