Altstadt (Old Town)

The heart of Düsseldorf beats in the old town. And it beats to its own rhythm: in the historic alleys, the spirit of the metropolis meets Rhineland serenity. Düsseldorf's old town measures just half a square kilometer, yet it is home to more than just “the longest bar in the world.” More than 700 years of city history await you here.

Historic buildings and cultural sites, shopping and strolling, cuisine and art – the Old Town has many faces and even more stories to tell. On this city tour, you can hear them from Düsseldorf locals. Over 260 bars and clubs, as well as cafés and restaurants, have earned the Old Town its reputation as a legendary nightlife district. A local peculiarity: it's only a few steps between the brewery and the church, the historic market square and the modern museum building. Find out where Hoppeditz awakens, what role Elector Jan Wellem plays in the art city of Düsseldorf, and how the cartwheeler became a landmark. Exciting in a different way: the Andreas Quartier as a spectacular conversion of historic buildings. A special finale? A detour to the Rhine promenade is well worth it. Here, you can enjoy a view of Düsseldorf's famous bridges and the picturesque Rhine meadows.
