Useful information The first references to Düsseldorf date back to the 7th century, when the Franks settled in the area. The local settlement developed near the Rhine River and, over time, became an important commercial center. Düsseldorf became a city in the 13th century and later the centre of the Duchy of Berg. In the 19th century, the city experienced great economic growth, especially in trade and the arts, and became known for the Academy of Fine Arts, attracting artists from all over Europe. In the 20th century, the city suffered major damage during World War II but recovered and became a modern metropolis after the war. Today, in Düsseldorf, you can enjoy the culture and arts of the city, visiting museums, galleries and theatrical performances, but also its gastronomic wealth, its beautiful parks, and tour the beautiful banks of the Rhine River. With its rich history and contemporary feel, Düsseldorf is a popular destination worth exploring and enjoying.
