Is it true that in 1949 the West German Bundestag chose Bonn over Frankfurt as the provisional capital?
Yes. A Wikipedia article on Bonn states that the city was made the provisional capital of the new Federal Republic of Germany instead of Frankfurt am Main on 29 November 1949, which covers the claim; a reference book adds that the capital was deliberately not placed in a major city such as Frankfurt because the state was meant to be provisional.
