  "account": "Monheim am Rhein is a city known for its unique attractions, such as a geysir that sprays water when there's enough solar energy, and a mirrored pyramid placed atop an existing one. The city also offers free public transportation, a TV tower with a swan motif, and free Wi-Fi throughout. Additionally, Monheim provides free kindergartens and new school buildings for its citizens.\n\nDespite its numerous perks, Monheim is one of the most indebted municipalities in Germany. However, starting in September, the city will be home to Europe's most modern concert hall. The question remains: will this be a new chapter in Monheim's story, or the final act?",
  "summary": "Monheim hat eine der höchsten Pro-Kopf-Verschuldungen Deutschlands. Nun eröffnet die Stadt den modernsten Konzertsaal Europas. Wie passt das zusammen? Ein Ortsbesuch.",
