Discover Düsseldorf by Hire Car
Düsseldorf is the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia – even though it is only the fourth largest city in this federal state.
Düsseldorf was named after the river Düssel, at whose mouth it flows into the Rhine.
In the Rhine-Ruhr region, Düsseldorf is the most influential city next to Cologne, which is not only shown in the traditional (but not really to be taken seriously) “enmity” of these two carnival strongholds.
Leisure in Düsseldorf
Culturally, Düsseldorf has plenty to offer outside of the 5th season. Here you will find plenty of opportunities to enjoy theatre and music, including the Deutsche Oper am Rhein, the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus, the Tonhalle Düsseldorf and the Freie Theater.
With the Kom(m)ödchen, founded in 1946, Düsseldorf can also boast the oldest cabaret in the Federal Republic of Germany.
Museum lovers will also get their money’s worth here, with a wide variety of interests catered for. For example, there is the Film Museum, the Goethe Museum, the German Ceramics Museum (Hetjens Museum), or the Museum of European Garden Art in Benrath Palace and Park.
Visitors with less artistic interests should make a note of the Aquazoo-Löbbecke Museum, the Maritime Museum or else the Mustard Museum.
Sights in Düsseldorf
For those who need more action, a visit to an American football game of the team Rhein Fire is recommended. Those who simply want to explore the city should not miss the Königsallee. The “Kö” forms the heart of the city, so to speak.
Numerous shops, restaurants and cultural institutions invite you to extensive shopping tours and culinary delights. In Düsseldorf itself, as well as in its immediate surroundings, there are also numerous castles and palaces to discover.
