Venue
Duisburg is a city in the western part of the Ruhr Area in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Numerous lakes, canals and ports dominating the landscape of the city make it one of the most water-abundant cities in Germany. With the world’s biggest inland harbor and its proximity to Düsseldorf Airport, Duisburg has become an important venue for commerce and steel production as well as for recreational activities. The Ruhrgebiet in Germany is famous for being a center of contrast – urban architecture meets extensive nature, harbors and waterfronts meet industrial culture, relaxing retreats meet interesting historical monuments. Being right in the heart of this region, Duisburg offers visitors to explore the “city of water and fire” and enjoy flair of the Ruhrgebiet with the relaxed atmosphere of the Lower Rhine area by visiting one of the following attractions and many more!
