City Guide:
The name of the German city Aachen originated from the Latin word “aqua”, which means “water”. This happened for a good reason. For the centuries the Aachen’s hot springs with the curative waters were beloved place of the Franks and the Romans. King Charlemagne was so fond of the city that he chose it as his favorite place and built his splendid Cathedral and his Empire in Aachen. The remains of Charlemagne can still be seen in his famous residence. After his death for almost 6 centuries the Cathedral used to serve as the place for coronation of the Kings of Germany. No wonder, in 1978 it became the first German site ever taken on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
