Rheinuferpromenade, Waterfront promenade in Altstadt, Düsseldorf, Germany

The Rhine Embankment Promenade extends 1,830 meters along the river, connecting the districts of Altstadt, Carlstadt, and Harbor with wide pedestrian walkways.

The promenade originated during the Rhine riverbank expansion between 1898 and 1902, featuring two distinct levels for shipping operations and public recreation.

The steps near Burgplatz function as a gathering space where residents and visitors meet while observing the Rhine River and historic architecture.

The waterfront path accommodates cyclists and pedestrians separately, with multiple access points to restaurants, cafes, and boat tour operations.

The construction of the Rhine tunnel in the 1990s enabled the complete redesign of the waterfront, reconnecting the city center with its riverside.
