Dusseldorf

Contemporary Architecture in the Media Harbour Express Tour

The Media Harbor is one of the first industrial harbors which has been converted into office buildings and cool restaurants. There is no other place on earth where there are as many buildings by star architects as in Düsseldorf within 10 minutes walking distance. Among them three (!) Pritzker Prize award winners - the Nobel prize for architecture: Frank Gehry, Renzo Piano, Fumihiko Maki.

I will make sure the landmark buildings "talk" to you: I will guide you to discover architectural treasures in their facades, outlines and the building material - and they will tell stories about water and waves, boats with their bows, railings, sails and gangways, radars, cranes and containers - all things which are connected to the "port" topic. And in the end you will agree: Architecture is fascinating!
