Lower Rhine Region Essentials

The Lower Rhine region features a dense concentration of moated castles, Roman history, and industrial landmarks. Key sites include the LVR-Archaeological Park Xanten, built on the site of the Roman city Colonia Ulpia Traiana, and the Gothic Xanten Cathedral. Industrial heritage is preserved at Duisburg-Nord Landscape Park, where a former ironworks serves as a public park, and the Tiger & Turtle sculpture. Architectural highlights range from the neo-Gothic Moyland Castle to the modern Rhine Tower in Düsseldorf and the Renaissance-style Schloss Rheydt.
