Activities in DusseldorfIndividual Sights in DusseldorfSight 1: Kaiserpfalz
The ruins of the Kaiserswerth Imperial Palace are located in the Kaiserswerth district of Düsseldorf. The Palatinate dates back to a monastery founded by the monk Suitbert(us) around 700. At that time, the Frankish householder Pippin the Middle and his wife Plektrudis gave the Anglo-Saxon monk an island on the Rhine artificially created by circumnavigating the old arm of the Rhine, on which there was already a Frankish Fronhof – protected by earthen ramparts, ditches and palisades. In the time that followed, this developed into a fortified customs fortress. On 23 December 1982, the complex was inscribed on the city's list of monuments in the category of castles, manor houses, fortifications, palaces.
