Street parking in Bonn
If you are heading into central Bonn, street parking is usually not the clearest first choice. The city centre is better approached through the main garages around the station, pedestrian area and Münsterplatz side.
That means on-street parking is mainly useful for short practical stops, while garages are usually the easier option if you want to stay longer in the centre.
