Dusseldorf City Guide And Airport Transfer service

A city nestled in western Germany, Düsseldorf is known for its art, architecture, and fashion industry. It is the second-largest city of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, and the seventh-largest in Germany. The city is mesmerizing to the extent that it leaves its mark on the hearts of the travellers! The city is coddled at the confluence of rivers Rhine and Düssel, lying at the centrepoint of Rhine-Ruhr and Rhineland Metropolitan regions. Although the city recorded its existence in history in the 7th century, - when traces of small farming and fishing settlements could be around the confluence of river Rhine, and its tributary Düssel - the written reference to the German city of Düsseldorf dates back to 1135.

One of the most significant days in the history of Düsseldorf came under the rule of the Counts of Berg, who took the city under their banner in 1186. It wasn't until 14th August, 1288 - the most important date in the city's history - that Düsseldorf was granted its very own "town privileges". Adolf VIII of Berg, who was ruling Düssedorf back then, granted the village these privileges, which later turned out to be the foundation stones of the city's prosperity! Although a wonderful mark in the history, this incident succeeded the bloodshed in the city caused by the Battle of Worringen, fought between the Archbishop of Cologne and the Count of Berg for the reins of Düsseldorf. The victory of the Count of Berg led to the town being granted the status of a city, which has been commemorated by the statue of Burgplatz. 

The city of Düsseldorf prospered in the 12th and a few centuries that followed. A market square - which turned out to be a great place for trade - was built on the banks of river Rhine. In 1380, the dukes of berg moved their seat of governance to the city of Dusseldorf, and made the city a capital to the Duchy of Berg! From this day forth, Düsseldorf's golden days started! An innumerable number of famous landmarks were built in the centuries that followed!
