VON PUTTKAMMER PALACE

The former palace of the German governor is only visible from the road, and since the President of the Republic has made it one of his residences. His architecture inspired that of the Sultan's Palace in Foumban in the West. Often drowned in the mist, this palace is at the heart of many stories of ghost, the widow of the former German governor would make frequent appearances. More generally, a few vestiges of German colonization are scattered in the city, including a Bismarck fountain.
