Arnsberg is known for its historical significance and scenic beauty.
It is part of the Hochsauerland Kreis,
in the Germand Bundesland Nordrhein Wesftfalen (NRW).
Arnsberg is surrounded by forests
and located in the north east of the river Rhur.
Arnsberg has a population of 73,500 people
and about 165.000 tourist per year.
Visit Arnsberg.com is an independant website
part of the the Visit Project from
Phone Book of the World.
The idea is to encourage the promotion
of "cultural heritage"
using
a modern internet address
people from every language
can instantly understand
and remember.
The key of the project is the world
Visit
The idea roots in the fact we had
the chance
to run into several tech pioneers
from California.
We met them at
an avan-garde web cafe
while they were travelling
through Europe.
But just before
there was also an inventor from Japan
and a Fashion Lady that onced lived 15 min away.
She had left a little jewel
that financed the very beginning of the story.
These people had crazy ideas
in some way the VisitArnsberg.com domain
is a little bit connected to them.
Cities have so many "little beauties"
like the Emsendenkmal Pavillion
few people know about.
