About

Burgplatz in Düsseldorf, Germany, is a historic and vibrant square located in the heart of the city's old town (Altstadt). The square is notable for its picturesque setting along the Rhine River and is a popular gathering spot for both locals and tourists. One of the key landmarks at Burgplatz is the Schlossturm (Castle Tower), which is the last remaining part of the Düsseldorf Castle that once stood on the site. The tower now houses the SchifffahrtMuseum (Maritime Museum), offering insights into the region's nautical history. Burgplatz is also a hub of cultural and social activities, often hosting events, markets, and festivals throughout the year.
