Now Beethoven gets taken down
NewsThis is the plinth on which Beethoven’s statue has stoodin Bonn’s Münsterplatz since 1845.
The town never paid a penny towards it – all the money was raised by Liszt – and the upkeep has been generally neglectful.
The statue is now so corroded that it has been take down for at least six months of restoration.
Don’t go to Bonn before the summer if you’re looking for Beethoven.
