Destination Dusseldorf

Product Information

On a visit you can tour the opulent Corps de Logis, designed by the Frenchman Nicolas de Pigage, and will have to wear special slippers to conserve the marble floors. At the time of writing in 2017 there was a photography exhibition, “Women on Street” by Garry Winogrand (posthumous) and Peter Lindbergh. 22. Neanderthal Museum Source: wikipedia Neanderthal Museum

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. Comparable to the chic Avenue Montaigne in Paris, this long stretch of high-end real estate was laid out in 1802 and continues to draw the crowds with its eclectic mix of exclusive boutique shops, designer clothing stores, and luxury shopping arcades. There's also no shortage of art galleries or restaurants and cafés.

That’s because the Classic Remise isn’t so much a museum as a facility where beautiful vehicles from the 20th century are restored, looked after and sold. The long anticipated Skids album, Destination Düsseldorf, is finally upon us. With its release date delayed to coincide with the tour of the same name, Robin Boardman finds out if it was worth the wait. The square is edged on all sides by rows of buildings that are listed monuments, all facing one of Germany’s most feted equestrian statues. The brewpubs in the quarter serve traditional Altbier, which we’ll talk about in more detail later. Dusseldorf Airport (DUS) is the fourth largest airport in Germany. You can fly to 173 destinations with 49 airlines in scheduled passenger traffic. Recently added routes (in the last 3 months)

Siegfried’s devastating defeat would result in Düsseldorf gaining city status, as depicted in the scene of the document being signed on the right. 12. Museum Kunstpalast Source: commons.wikimedia Museum Kunstpalast For a while, the Skids, founded by the great and sadly missed Stuart Adamson in 1977, shone very brightly in the early punk / new wave firmament. One of the first bands to tear up the basic punk template and take things in completely different directions, they produced three outstanding albums and a string of memorable singles (including the mighty Into The Valley) prior to Adamson’s departure in 1981 to form the massively successful Big Country. The best of the massive Düsseldorf-Hafen (Dusseldorf Harbor) redevelopment is in Neuer Zollhof, a stunning section highlighted by the Frank O. Gehry-designed office buildings of Medienhafen ( Media Harbor), three quite distinct structures completed in 1998 that seem to defy gravity as they lean and curve like jelly frozen in mid-wobble. The museum also abounds with graphical art, in a collection assembled with pieces from across Europe, Japan and the Near East.

23. Altbier

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). Produced by Killing Joke bassist Youth, the album features trademark formidable guitar work from Bruce and Jamie Watson, plus guest contributions from Filthy Tongues songsmith Martin Metcalfe and ex-Strangler, Hugh Cornwell.

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. If you stop by at lunch there’s a cosmopolitan choice of food to-go, like bratwurst, kebabs, soup, potato pancakes and crêpes. Found on Stiftsplatz, the church’s 12th-century triple-aisled nave dates to the 12th century, while the Gothic choir is from around a century later.A number of fine luxury hotels line the street, too, some of them boasting excellent rooftop patios with views over this bustling street and the city. In July there’s an explosion of fun and levity at the Kirmes fair, a public celebration that is only exceeded by Oktoberfest for scale. One area best viewed from the water is the Medienhafen, cruises departing from the Rheinuferpromenade head straight for this neighbourhood. 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.

To give you a taste there have been exhibitions for Vivienne Westwood, Martin Kippenberger, Anton Corbijn, Andy Warhol, Alexander McQueen, Bettina Rheims, Michel Comte over the last 15 years or so.

5. Rhine Tower

In prime position in front of the Rhine, the Kunstpalast is the main attraction at the Ehrenhof cultural complex. The tower’s peculiar appearance isn’t intentional; it was constructed in 1815 following a fire, and before long the timbers warped.
