Cecilienallee, Architectural boulevard along Rhine River in Düsseldorf, Germany.

The Cecilienallee extends north to south with buildings on its eastern side while Golzheim Park lines the western edge along the Rhine.

Named after Crown Princess Cecilie of Mecklenburg, the street was established in the early 1900s following extensive riverbank earthworks between 1898 and 1902.

The boulevard features neobaroque architecture throughout its length, with numerous governmental buildings including the Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf and District Government offices.

Multiple crossroads connect with Cecilienallee, forming a central transportation route that leads directly to the Düsseldorf exhibition grounds via the Rhine Ufer Tunnel.

The street underwent a temporary name change during 1936-1945, when it was designated as 'Ufer der Alten Garde' and later 'Alte-Garde-Ufer'.
