Experience a district in transition - a guided tour through the MedienHafen with an ascent to the Rhine Tower.

Just how dynamically Düsseldorf is developing is particularly evident in the MedienHafen. Until the 1980s, the area was dominated by warehouses - today the district is in a state of permanent upheaval. Discover spectacular architectural icons on the tour: The quirky buildings by American Frank O. Gehry are just as characteristic of the MedienHafen today as the open forms of the Landtag.

The highlight of the tour is the ascent to the Rhine Tower. Enjoy an impressive view of the Rhine metropolis from 168 meters with explanations and stories about Düsseldorf from our tour guides.
