Is Soligen a good place for tourists - that is, things to do? Does Boker have knife factory tours?
Well i have never been to Solingen but they do create awesome knives etc.
I can assume that they also make factory tours. Best is you contact a travel agency there or straight the company.
Solingen is Bielefeld's eternal rival for the title of the most boring city in Germany.
Thanks for your replies and honesty. Now, I have to look up Bielefeld.
If there's good beer (And, there is always good beer), food, and people - Solingen may still work-out.

note:
Attention!
Due to the increasing spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), our factory cannot be visited in the next few months.
Thank you for the update. I am not leaving the USA while corona virus is happening. I was just gleaning ideas for a future trip. I've always had an eye on Germany and would like to see Brugges, Belgium as well.
