Duisburg · 5 entries
Duisburg, the steel city at the confluence of the Rhine and Ruhr rivers, has developed a lively bar scene in recent years that goes well beyond the Ruhr Valley cliche. Dellplatz in the city center has become the main meeting point for night owls, while Sternbuschweg to the south draws a student crowd with budget-friendly pubs and cult venues.
Dellplatz
Dellplatz is Duisburg's most important going-out square. Bars, restaurants, and event venues line the perimeter, and in summer the outdoor seating turns the square into an urban living room.
Sternbuschweg & Student Quarter
Along Sternbuschweg near the university, you will find affordable pubs and characterful spots shaped by the student scene.
