How can I search for a list of cities in Google Maps?

Question

I would like to see those cities marked in Google Maps:

Bonn, Bornheim, Dorsten, Dortmund, Essen, Feldhausen, Grevenbroich, Hallenberg, Koeln, Krefeld, Moers, Muenster, Neuss, Neviges, Velbert, Walberberg, Wuppertal, Wuppertal

Can I somehow enter that list in the Maps search bar to see those cities all at once?

I thought of something like :

from Bonn over Bornheim, over Dorsten to Wuppertal, Germany

but that search-string doesent work in Google Maps like this

If you don't mind doing this outside of the normal maps.google.com interface, there's a site which lets you Plot multiple locations on Google Maps. You can even save a custom link to the map you've created.

If you don't mind doing a bit of coding, you can pull in the list of locations from a Google Spreadsheet.
