Review & FAQ:

Did you know that cartwheeling is one of the oldest traditions in Dusseldorf? So iconic is this local tradition, that it was even immortalized through the erection of a historical landmark and fountain known as Radschlagerbrunnen in 1954. The fountain is located in the Burgplatz, right next to the Schlossturm, and features a sculpture of two cartwheeling children. Sitting at the heart of a city square, the Radschlagerbrunnen is a prime opportunity for a quintessential photo op in Dusseldorf, and a great spot to people watch in this busy locale. Drop by one of the neighboring coffee shops or cafes for a quick bite to eat or to savor a stupendous cup of coffee.
