When thinking about an impact of a place that is of a city scale, with many functions and means of usage, we think about an urban space. Particularly in this 2000 year-old city; Bonn, there is the need of the whole urban scale to congregate at one point and through tradition; Germans have been used to using Marktplatz as an urban space even for political reasons.

The lay out of the square is quite similar in any German town, in front of the old Rathaus (City Hall), an opening of square fenced by commercial buildings, such as shops, cafes, and restaurants, even in some cases hotels completed with some kind of statue as a mark for the city.

On the market place social interaction happens and created life atmosphere to the city soul. I spent 3 whole months in Bonn, and at almost twice a month there was always something happening.

This market place has been used for different urban function, such as traditional fruit and vegetable market (regularly open every weekdays), commercial and even cultural events (usually at weekends). The different uses we see for this has told us the liveliness of city and thus created the space called as urban centre. This is a feature any given old European cities.
