About Wuppertal
Within easy reach of the much larger hubs of Düsseldorf and Essen Wuppertal is a lovely small city on the banks of the River Wupper. Famed for its 1901-built suspension monorail, the city was once part of North Rhine-Westphalia’s industrial zone, and various landmarks pay testament to this fascinating heritage. Whilst there are a good choice of accommodation options close to the town centre, our pick of the best places to stay in Wuppertal is a superb heritage property, set just south of the city and brilliant for romantics.
Amble around Wuppertal on foot to pop into some excellent museums. The Von der Hydt Museum boasts a fantastic art collection, the Engels-Haus Museum details the life of the founder of Marxist theory, and the Museum of Early Industrialisation houses impressive steam engines and textile-making machines. Strolls around the Waldfrieden Sculpture Park, with its bold modern pieces, are another highlight.
If you’re travelling with little ones, the Wuppertal Zoo is not to be missed, and the Botanical Gardens are ideal for picnics in the summer sunshine. Venture further afield to follow walking and cycling trails, take scenic river cruises, or play a round of golf at some of the region’s top courses. Return to our pick of the best places to stay in Wuppertal for a superb private event — or to savour afternoon tea in lush landscaped gardens, ahead of another relaxing day.
