Destination Dusseldorf

Product Information

If you’re interested in sampling the nuanced differences in varieties, there are five microbreweries in the Altstadt, while the city’s tourism board organises guided tours. When the sun is out it might feel like the whole city has decided to come for a wander at this promenade on the right bank of the Rhine. Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in. Also of interest to art lovers is Kunsthalle Dusseldorf, a collective of local artists who regularly host displays of members' work in a unique underground gallery called Art in the Tunnel (Kunst im Tunnel).

The beverage has a dark reddish tone and gets is called “old” as it uses top-fermenting yeast (the old way to make ale). This beer is fermented at a moderate temperature, but then matures at quite a cool one, which gives it a crispness and taste closer to lager than a traditional ale. As a young kid on the east coast of Scotland I always felt closer to Europe, even though it was over the water, than I did to England in a funny kind of way. Destination Dusseldorf is the brand new studio album from Scotland’s legendary Skids. The band note Europe as an ongoing inspiration for the new LP; “from the beauty of the Renaissance to the savagery of many wars, the highs and lows have been there as an ongoing and ever-evolving influence. This new album follows in the footsteps of ‘Days In Europa’ as a celebration of friendship and shared experiences.” Boy, what a celebration it is. The whole album is an absolute triumph from the opening chord to the final crescendo there is clearly a lot of love, respect, craft and quality bled into the grooves of Destination Dusseldorf’. At a converted steam locomotive roundhouse there’s a jaw-dropping fleet of classic cars you can see free of charge. There are two cruise companies, Weisse Flotte and KD, offering hour-long trips, free refreshments and a running commentary over a loudspeaker in both German and English.

This is where you can find the remains of the 8th-centruy St Suitbertus, contained in a richly ornamented reliquary. Dusseldorf Airport (DUS) is the fourth largest airport in Germany.

There’s also an exhibition about the different branches in the evolution of man, and a collection of casts illustrating the development of early hominids. The third location, Schmela Haus, hosts numerous temporary exhibits. Other art-related museums of note in Düsseldorf include the Julia Stoschek Collection, a private collection of contemporary art, and the Ernst Schneider Collection. A variety of reputable dining options are available at the museum's various locations. One of the defining features of Düsseldorf’s skyline is the twisting tower of the 14th-century Sankt Lambertus church.

The museum is located on the route of a 243-kilometer trail network; if you can manage the walk, (an hour each way), you can explore attractive downtown Mettmann from here. In the museum you’ll come face-to-face with models of Neanderthals based on real fossils and will be informed about their behaviour and the mass migration that brought them from grasslands in the east to western Europe. In prime position in front of the Rhine, the Kunstpalast is the main attraction at the Ehrenhof cultural complex. Several types of goods are exempt from being returned.

23. Altbier

The first promenade appeared at the turn of the 20th century, but it’s only since 1993,when road traffic was redirected underground, that it’s been possible to amble next to the Rhine in peace. The brewpubs in the quarter serve traditional Altbier, which we’ll talk about in more detail later. Working under Charles Theodore again, Nicolas de Pigage was responsible for this section and the long grand avenue linking the two monuments.
