Germany: Hotel Petersberg

On Thursday I got four postcards: one from Germany, two from Canada and one from Russia.

The card from Germany shows the Hotel Petersberg in the Siebengebirge. The Hotel Petersberg housed the Allied High Commission for Germany after World War II. In September 1949 the Occupation Statute was issued there and later this year Chancellor Konrad Adenauer signed there the Petersberg Agreement. Later the hotel was used as Federal Guest House of the German Federal Government.
