Itinerary

1. Altstadt

Begin your walking tour in the heart of Düsseldorfer Altstadt, famously known as the “longest bar in the world.” Despite its compact size, the Old Town boasts more than 300 bars, pubs, and breweries, creating a lively and unique atmosphere. As you stroll through its charming streets, you will experience a vibrant mix of traditional Rhineland culture and modern city life, with historic facades standing alongside bustling venues.

Duration: 10 mins

2. Marktplatz

Continue to Marktplatz, the historic marketplace that dates back to the 14th century and formed part of Düsseldorf’s early expansion. Today, this central square serves as a focal point for public events and civic life. Here you will encounter the impressive Düsseldorf Town Hall as well as the iconic Jan Wellem equestrian statue, a tribute to one of the city’s most influential rulers.

Duration: 15 mins

3. Old Town Hall

Take a closer look at the Town Hall complex itself, an architectural ensemble comprising three distinct buildings from different historical periods. These include the “Old Town Hall” on the northern side of the square, the Wilhelminian-style extension, and the Grupello House to the west. Together, they reflect the evolving political and architectural history of Düsseldorf across centuries.

Duration: 10 mins

4. Dusseldorf

Nearby, you will find the statue of John Sigismund, an important historical figure who became Duke of Prussia through his marriage to Duchess Anna. This monument offers insight into the dynastic connections that shaped regional power in early modern Europe.

Duration: 15 mins

5. St. Lambertus Church

As you continue your walk, pass by the elegant St. Lambertus Basilica, one of the city’s oldest landmarks, instantly recognizable by its distinctive twisted tower. This Gothic church adds a spiritual and architectural highlight to the Old Town and is closely tied to Düsseldorf’s medieval heritage.

Duration: 20 mins

6. Rhine Tower

Proceed towards the Rhine riverfront, where you will enjoy scenic views along the promenade. In the distance, you will see the modern Rhine Tower rising above the skyline. Nearby stands the historic Schlossturm, the only remaining part of the former ducal palace. This striking tower, with its round and hexagonal levels adorned with Tuscan columns, now houses the Maritime Museum Düsseldorf, where you can explore fascinating exhibitions about the city’s relationship with the Rhine.

Duration: 20 mins

7. Tonhalle Dusseldorf

Conclude your tour at the remarkable Tonhalle Düsseldorf, an architectural masterpiece designed by Wilhelm Kreis.
