Poppelsdorfer Allee, Baroque avenue in Bonn, Germany.

The one-kilometer tree-lined avenue connects the Electoral Palace to Poppelsdorf Palace, featuring double rows of chestnut trees along wide pedestrian paths.

Constructed between 1745 and 1755 under Elector Clemens August, the avenue replaced initial plans for a canal proposed by Joseph Clemens in 1718.

The avenue serves as a central gathering space for university students and locals, connecting multiple academic institutions including the Botanical Gardens.

Pedestrians and cyclists can access designated paths on both sides of the central lawn, while vehicle traffic flows along the outer edges.

The avenue features white-flowering chestnuts along the main route and red-flowering varieties near Poppelsdorf Palace, creating a planned color pattern.
