These two districts are vibrant without being overwhelming or pompous. Favourites among young expats or families who mix well with elderly residents in Pempelfort and Derendorf. An incredible offering of bistros, restaurants and cafés can be discovered. An enormous expanse of cultivated grassland invites residents to relax beside the riverbank nearby.

Possibly the most intact urban streets for neighbourhood shopping, the Nordstrasse is full of surprises. It offers a large number of bakeries, many organic shops and everything else besides. A Saturday street market offers a great variety of produce and atmosphere too.
