Oberkassel, Residential district on the west bank of Rhine River in Düsseldorf, Germany

Oberkassel extends across 3.68 square kilometers of land, featuring tree-lined streets, historic churches, and contemporary residential buildings along the Rhine riverfront.

The area joined Düsseldorf in 1909, and during World War II in 1945, American forces attempted to capture the bridge before German troops destroyed it.

The district houses the Julia Stoschek Collection, which opened in 2007, providing 2,500 square meters of exhibition space across two floors.

The Barbarossaplatz market operates every Tuesday and Friday, offering fresh produce and local goods to residents and visitors of the neighborhood.

A large portion of Düsseldorf's Japanese community resides in Oberkassel, with dedicated facilities including a kindergarten and the Eko-House cultural center.
