SchifffahrtMuseum

A brilliant little museum with gorgeous ship models and heaps of exhibitions, some of which are interactive. The lovely (cash-only) café on top has views which rival the Rheinturm/Bar M168 but offers an infinitely better all-round experience. Ignore that tourist trap and come here for refreshments instead.

Interesting displays and information, with many hands-on activities for children. Lovely views from every floor, and the cafe at the top is a hidden gem from which you can enjoy lovely views of the Rhine and watch the world going by beside it.

Major attractions in my eyes: ⭐Hands-on designs. From pulling yourself up by a knotted rope, to navigating long barges through narrow waterways, the little spaces offer outsized fun. ⭐Ship models. I love ship models. ⭐Vista. The deep windows look out to the Rhein and frame the bridges, boats and promenade beautifully. Logistics: ⭐Take a one euro coin for locker. You’ll get it back as you release the locker and leave. ⭐It is Sunday today, so entrance is free.

It was really great and it has many cool things. It is also very cheap (€3.5). It also has a bar at top that has many alcoholic options with a great view but it doesn’t have many Coffee options. The infos in the Museum are mostly in German so if you don’t know German I suggest you to use google translate and read the infos.

Old building that still well maintained n become nice landscape photography. I do enjoy strolling around this area, feeling romance that decades ago there was been some great civilization here. Tons of amazing architecture building that seems never ending story to watch, historical, memorable, n beautiful indeed. The location was strategic, near the river, many cafe and shops. Many Peoples come Here to solely hanging around, enjoying the view n waiting for beautiful sunset time as well.. i took this picture when pre summer 2019, such a nice experience n really glad to be here..

A little small. Good place to spend about 30 minutes between other activities. Nice view from the top of the tower.

Museums location is great. You need to see the around. It is near the rhein river. Entrence fee is 3 euro. There are model ships which demonstrate the ship transportation evolution... On the top of it, there is a restaurant. It's view is quite beautiful and fascinating... I recommend you visit. It is no so big to complete.. Have fun.... Ich empfehle ihnen zu besuchen...

A paid to enter museum. The only remains of the old palace. Now converted as a tower museum. Artifacts in it tells the story how dusseldorf came about ages ago and its importance as trade centre. It covers some history (summary some sort) about how the city comes about...if you do not have time to cover bigger museums to know about the city. Walk up the stairs to get some good view of the city. There are some interactive video (both english and german) explaining about the city. Take your time to listen to and watch it. The highest floor is a cafe giving you a 360 view of the city and river RHINE.
