Oberkassel

Oberkassel sits on the Rhine's left bank, directly opposite the Altstadt, and combines grandeur with a relaxed, residential calm that has made it one of Dusseldorf's most prized addresses. Its streets are an architectural showcase of Art Nouveau and Wilhelminian apartment buildings and elegant villas, many with balconies overlooking the river. The Oberkasseler Rheinwiesen, broad meadows along the water, give residents an open green frontage and one of the best views of the old town skyline in the whole city. Life centres on the Luegallee, a handsome boulevard of boutiques, delicatessens, patisseries and bistros, and on Belsenplatz with its weekly market. The district is firmly family-oriented and international, well served by good schools including nearby international options, and connected to the centre in minutes by tram across the Oberkasseler Bruecke. Quiet, refined and prosperous, Oberkassel offers the rare combination of riverside beauty, period elegance and city-centre access that defines premium living in Dusseldorf.
