Aachen is a spa town in western Germany in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, on the border with Belgium and the Netherlands. Aachen was once the seat of Charlemagne and the center of his European empire. Charlemagne built a palace and a chapel there, which was expanded over time into the cathedral that still exists today. Inside this historic temple are the imperial throne and reliquary of Charlemagne, the Great Relics of Aachen, i.e. Mary's gown or the baby Jesus' diaper, among others, and many other valuable medieval objects.
In addition to the cathedral, see the beautiful town hall and take advantage of the health-promoting properties of the local thermal waters. There are several interesting museums in Aachen: the cathedral treasury, the Centre Charlemagne introducing the history of Aachen, or the Couven Museum, presenting technical progress and the life of the city's inhabitants in the 18th century, among others. Aachen also has many interesting monuments and fountains. Right next to the cathedral is the Puppenbrunnen, a movable fountain from 1975 that tells the city's history in an abbreviated way with the help of figures moved by viewers.
Aachen is now a major industrial center that is an important road and rail hub. The city is home to Germany's largest polytechnic university and many other smaller universities. You can fly there by plane, heading to Cologne airport, then change to a train. You can also get there directly from Poland by taking our long-distance buses. Take a bus to Aachen and see this remarkable city with your own eyes.
