The Rhineland Museum (Rheinisches Landesmuseum Bonn) has a rich collection of antiquities, including rare Frankish and medieval works of art and paintings. 

The museum, one of the oldest in Germany (it can trace its roots back to 1820), deals primarily with local history dating from prehistoric times as well as Roman era settlements that have been discovered in the area.

 Most of the displays are dioramas of life during those bygone days. Also of interest is the German Museum (Deutsches Museum Bonn) with its numerous science and technology displays.
