Neighbourhood
"Oberkassel is one of the oldest and most favoured districts in Dusseldorf. It is directly across the mighty Rhine river from the old town - close enough to get the full city buzz, but still quiet and peaceful. There are many parks, cafe's, restaurants closeby and our favourite local brewery pub is only a short walk away.
While away the evening at the river, cheer on the team with the crowd at the football stadium or go shopping on Königsallee, affectionately known as the Kö. Amongst the most popular of these are the Old Town, the Hofgarten and the Media Harbour. Düsseldorf’s 50 districts all have their own charm and attractions. Düsseldorf is often referred to as the Culture City. Museum fans are in for a treat in the city: from art history to city history. Music also plays an important role in Düsseldorf; the Music Hall and the Opera House are just two of the many highlights.
Düsseldorf stands for internationality, diversity and openness. Great emphasis is placed on living together peacefully in the city. Citizens from around 180 nations live here. As if German food and drink was not enough, we also benefit from the tasty parts of all these different cultures!"
There are long walking and jogging routes along the river, which are really scenic.
While swimming in the Rhine is not allowed (!), we have several public swimming pools and saunas close to us. In summer the outdoor Swimmbad Lörick is a great place to hang out.
Further afield, there are so many interesting things to do. In North Rhine-Westphalia alone, there are many hiking & biking trails, beautiful sights to see, castles to dream in, lakes to float in...you get the picture!
And you can easily visit Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg on day trips, tick them off the list.
Nearest airport
Duesseldorf airport is just over 10kms away. Thats a quick 20 minute/25 euro Taxi fare. Or a little adventure on public transport to get you in the swing of things!
Getting around
Our apartment is a 2 minute walk from Barbarozzaplatz U-Bahn stop, which is serviced by 4 different lines (74, 75, 76, 77) so you'll never be more than 5 minutes waiting.
Although its only 3 stops to the centre of town, it’s also lovely to walk across the bridge to it.
Several companies offer city bike hire, which are easy to sign up for online. Our favorite way of getting around is using Eddy’s, the electric city mopeds, also easy to register for online.

People Like Us Local Guide
I would love to meet up with other PLU members, show them around the city and have a coffee or beer with them. Please give me a shout if you come to visit our lovely city!

We are an Irish/German couple in our early 50s. We are keen travelers, amateurish hikers, semi professional scoffers of good food and wine and dream about early retirement. We love exchanging and making new friends and seeing new places - this kind of travel has opened up a whole new world for us. We are pretty flexible because we can work remotely so we can consider all exchange opportunities!
"Northern Hemisphere winter, so I´m not expecting a rush of offers for sim exchanges (although it would be great!) I´m hoping you´ll come stay in ours during the 2024 year non-sim, so we can bank a few stays for big trip Down Under at the end of the year."
