Invictus Games 2023

Rheinturm

Düsseldorf has a number of architectural landmarks, but the Rhine tower is the most striking. This is not least due to its height. It soars 240,5 metres into the sky, and on a clear day the Cologne Cathedral can be seen from the M168 observation deck.

Filmmuseum Düsseldorf

In the footsteps of Charlie Chaplin, Federico Fellini, Alfred Hitchcock and Marlene Dietrich – in the Düsseldorf Film museum in the Düsseldorf Carlstadt, small and large devotional objects of the stars await their admirers.

Aquazoo Löbbecke Museum

The art museums in Düsseldorf enjoy an international reputation, but the favourite is the Aquazoo Löbbecke Museum in Nordpark. Everything has been happening in, under and over water since 1987.

Haus des Karnevals (House of the carnival)

In the immediate vicinity of Düsseldorf’s Burgplatz, the state capital presents its collection all about winter customs: the carnival. Celebrated as early as 1386 at Düsseldorf Castle at carnival time, you can experience carnival all year round at the House of Carnival.

KIT - Kunst im Tunnel (Art in the tunnel)

A spectacular place for an unusual idea. The KIT Museum, acronym for art in the tunnel, is located under the Düsseldorf Rhine embankment promenade – in a room that lies between the tunnels for traffic.

MERKUR SPIEL-ARENA

The heart of the Invictus Games Düsseldorf 2023 is the MERKUR SPIEL-ARENA – directly on the banks of the Rhine.
It offers space for 54,600 spectators and unforgettable ceremonies and competitions. This is where the Games will be opened and a large part of them will be held.

MedienHafen

The MedienHafen in Düsseldorf shines with big names. The star architect Frank O. Gehry created a real Düsseldorf landmark with the three-part, organically designed building ensemble Neuer Zollhof.

Königsallee

For many, Düsseldorf is synonymous with the Kö. No other German shopping street is blessed with such charisma. The Königsallee is just as much a golden mile as an international trademark.

Carlsplatz

This is where the culinary heart of the city beats. More than 60 stands are close to each other and try to outdo each other with their freshness, quality and choice on a daily basis.

Old Town

It covers only half a square kilometre and is nevertheless known as the “the longest bar in the world”. In fact, the old town of Düsseldorf has many facets beyond the famous Altbier and the notorious “Raubeinigen Köbesse”, as the waiters are called here.

Rhine embankment promenade

No wonder, the promenade between the Altstadt (Old town) and the river has so much to offer: warm breezes and spectacular sunsets, gourmet celebrations, a staircase on which to linger and urban beach furniture.

Japanischer Garten

In the northwestern corner of Nordpark, where the park is the quietest and most tranquil, there is a garden gem of a special kind – the “Japanese garden on the Rhine”.

Rhine meadow

Düsseldorf is often associated with luxury. But money does not always have to be involved. Even the vastness of the Rhine meadows in the middle of the big city is a luxury that other cities are lacking.

Benrath Palace

These are Schloss Jägerhof and Schloss Benrath in the south of Düsseldorf. The latter was designed by architect Nicolas de Pigage and is considered one of the most beautiful late Baroque garden palaces in Europe.

Burgplatz

It is considered one of the most beautiful German squares of the postwar period: The Burgplatz between the Rhine embankment and the Altstadt (Old town) is one of those places that should definitely be on the list.
