Highlights
Green+urban, the future formula of the city! On the tour you will experience architecture + nature in an imposing symbiosis. Explore the urban landscape between Königsallee and Hofgarten. Important stops are two still young Düsseldorf landmarks: Kö-Bogen I+II. The banishment of traffic underground made it possible in the first place – Düsseldorf’s New Center. The area at the top of Kö+um den Gustaf-Gründgens-Platz is characterized by the signature of two great architects: The elegantly curved Kö-Bogen I by the New Yorker Daniel Libeskind meets the urban vision of the Düsseldorf artist Christoph Ingenhoven. In 2021, his climate-fit Ingenhoven Valley was completed. 30,000 hornbeams make up Europe's largest green facade. Vis-à-vis: the triangular market hall with a walk-in lawn roof. Enjoy the view of the Hofgarten and two icons of post-war architecture from here: Playhouse+three-disc house. Further unusual perspectives on old and new city structures can be found in our guide.

About Düsseldorf
Düsseldorf is a Rhineland city of art, fashion and business, with a riverside promenade, an old town of brewpubs and modern harbour architecture.
Düsseldorf spreads along the east bank of the Rhine, and the riverside promenade below the Old Town is where the city gathers. The Altstadt is packed with brewpubs serving altbier, a dark copper beer, and is nicknamed the longest bar in the world. Close by, the Rheinturm television tower rises above the Medienhafen, a former harbour now lined with sculptural buildings by Frank Gehry and other architects.
