Where to stay in Volmerswerth
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Few beds sit this close to the Rhine and this far from the old town at once. Volmerswerth is a small quarter of Borough 3 with Hamm, Bilk and Flehe around it, which puts those neighbours within easy reach and the centre of Düsseldorf a ride away. The river sets the edge.
Anyone booking here accepts that journey in for museums and evening streets, and takes the bank and the Reckenberg Roman Watchtower in exchange.

About Volmerswerth
What are the main landmarks in Volmerswerth?
A Roman name heads the list. The Reckenberg Roman Watchtower is what sets Volmerswerth apart from the quarters around it, since the rest of the register runs to parish building and a cemetery chapel rather than to anything earlier. St. Ludger is one dedication and St. Dionysius the other, while Kapelle Südfriedhof closes a list of four names.
What is the history of Volmerswerth?
No founding year sits on Volmerswerth's record. The oldest thing the register does name is the Reckenberg Roman Watchtower, which puts a Roman-period marker on this stretch of the Rhine long before the quarter took the shape Borough 3 now records. Two church dedications follow.
St. Ludger and St. Dionysius stand for the parish side, and the Kapelle Südfriedhof is the last of the four names, with nothing in between to date the building of the streets.
Where is Volmerswerth?
Volmerswerth holds about two square kilometres by the Rhine in the west of Düsseldorf, with Hamm, Bilk and Flehe adjoining. Borough 3 covers it.
