Duisburg at Night

Duisburg transforms after dark. Landscape Park North is bathed in coloured light by the installation of the British artist Jonathan Park — blast furnaces glow blue, red and green. Tiger & Turtle gleams along its rails, and the Geleucht on the Rheinpreussen slag heap casts its glow over the Rhine. In between, the play of lights at the Inner Harbour. A tour for photographers and night owls.

Best time to visit: October to March — with early darkness the light show begins early in the evening

Duisburg at Night

Day 1

Lights and industry by night

We start with sunset by the water and then move through the illuminated industrial heritage that makes Duisburg so special at night.

  1. 17:00 - 18:30

    Sunset at the Inner Harbour

    The early evening begins at the Inner Harbour, when the illuminated warehouses are reflected in the water. A loop around the basin sets the mood for the night.

  2. 18:30 - 19:30

    Dinner at the harbour

    Before the light tour, a good dinner at the Inner Harbour — the restaurants by the water offer the ideal fortification.

  3. 20:00 - 21:30

    Light installation at the Landscape Park

    The highlight of the night: Jonathan Park's lighting design bathes the old ironworks in surreal colours. Blast furnaces, pipes and bunkers glow in blue, red and green — a walkable light sculpture of world rank.

    Tip: The lighting runs daily after dark — bring a tripod for photos.

  4. 21:45 - 22:30

    Tiger & Turtle by night

    At night the walkable rollercoaster is lit along its steel rail and floats like a line of light over the Angerpark. From the top, the nocturnal Ruhr region sparkles.

  5. 22:45 - 23:30

    The Geleucht on the slag heap

    To finish, the red-glowing giant miner's lamp 'Das Geleucht' on the Rheinpreussen slag heap in Homberg — a landmark visible from afar over the nocturnal Rhine.
