Duisburg is a city in Germany’s Rhineland, one of the oldest cities in the Lower Rhine region and the fifth-largest of North Rhine-Westphalia, which lies at the junction of the Rhine and Ruhr rivers. It was in Duisburg that Flemish cartographer Gerhard Mercator produced his world-famous atlases in the 16th century. Duisburg is home to Europe’s largest inland port with remains of coal-mining and iron- and steel-manufacturing centers. The city is also known for being a hub of cultural activity, with restaurants, museums, a mix of modern and restored buildings, and cultural venues located on the city’s inner harbor. The city has retained its past industrial charm and transformed it from a modern urban cultural city to the present day.
Among the greatest Duisburg attractions are- Lehmbruck Museum, Inner Harbour, Museum of Urban History and Culture, Tiger and Turtle – Magic Mountain, and Königstraße, a beautiful pedestrian street perfect for leisurely walks.
