Have you ever noticed that almost every town in Germany has a street called Konrad Adenauer Strasse? Konrad Adenauer played an important role in the foundation of the Germany that we know today.

History of Konrad Adenauer?
Konrad Adenauer (1876-1967) Became the first chancellor (1949-63) of the new Federal Republic of Germany and helped lead West Germany to postwar recovery and prosperity. Adenauer held the record for his term in office until it was broken by former German chancellor, Helmut Kohl. Bonn was chosen as West Germany’s “provisional” capital, in part because it was Adenauer’s home town.
