Meerbusch, Municipality near Rhine River in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Description
Meerbusch is a municipality in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss in North Rhine-Westphalia, situated along the Rhine between Krefeld and Düsseldorf. Eight separate districts spread across the river landscape and are connected by roads and green corridors.
History
The municipality came into being in 1970 when eight formerly independent villages, among them Büderich, Osterath, and Lank-Latum, joined together. This reform aimed to simplify administration in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss and make infrastructure more efficient.
Culture
The Forum Wasserturm transforms an old industrial structure into a local stage where residents gather for theater evenings and concerts throughout the year. Many people appreciate how the separate villages keep their smaller scale and neighborly feel even though larger cities lie close by.
Practical
The municipality sits close to Düsseldorf Airport and offers good highway connections, so visitors can reach the individual districts quickly. Those walking along the Rhine find several places to stop in the villages and can orient themselves with local signposts.
