Nordpark & Japanese Garden

The Nordpark in Golzheim is one of the loveliest and best-kept parks in Düsseldorf. Laid out in 1937, it impresses with wide lawns, symmetrical beds, fountains and large water features that provide refreshment in summer. A special gem is the Japanese Garden, created as a gift from Düsseldorf's Japanese community. With its carefully arranged stones, winding paths, a pond and harmoniously placed plants, it is an oasis of calm. The Nordpark is a popular destination for families, walkers and anyone who wants to relax in the green.

A well-kept park

The Nordpark was laid out in 1937 and remains to this day one of the loveliest and most carefully tended green spaces in Düsseldorf. Wide lawns, formally designed beds, fountains and large water features shape the picture. Especially on warm days the fountains are a draw. The clear, geometric design lends the park a festive character and makes it a representative showpiece in the north of the city.

The Japanese Garden

The centrepiece for many visitors is the Japanese Garden, created as a gift from Düsseldorf's large Japanese community. Düsseldorf is regarded as the centre of the Japanese community in Germany, and this garden is a visible sign of that bond. With artfully placed stones, a pond, winding paths and carefully chosen plants, it creates an atmosphere of calm and harmony in the middle of the city.

Tips for your visit

The Nordpark is a popular destination for families, walkers and anyone seeking quiet in the green. The Japanese Garden is especially lovely during the cherry blossom in spring and in autumn, when the leaves change colour. Directly adjacent lies the Aquazoo, so a park visit pairs perfectly with the natural history museum — an ideal programme for a relaxed family day.
